With these breakfast-inspired balls stashed in your fridge or freezer, you'll never have to skip breakfast again. For a meal, grab one or two balls along with a plain, grass-fed Greek yogurt, if you can. Otherwise, enjoy them as a midday snack. They have plenty of oats to punch up your soluble fiber intake for the day too.

With clean hands, firmly form while squeezing mixture into 12 balls, about 2 tablespoons each.
