Add the superfoods and protein powder and salt and blend until the mixture is a bit sticky.
Take out just enough to roll into about a 1.5" ball. Roll it in your hands and then roll in coconut flour or coconut sugar to help them not stick to each other in the container. If you are adding mini chocolate chips, now is the time to roll a few of them in, as well.
Place in an airtight container and keep in fridge or freeze. These make great lunchbox treats - take them out of the freezer and they will be perfect by the time lunch rolls around.
