Ready to amp up your energy this summer? Whip up a batch of the Seed & Nut Adaptogenic Energy Balls this weekend to keep you going through all the festivities.

From the recipe's creator, Sarah Greenfield of Fearless Fig: "Pumpkin seeds contain iron, which could support energy for athletes, especially those who may be low in iron. Hemp seeds and walnuts may provide omega-3's, which assist full body wellbeing. These little energy balls could assist balanced energy and if you are following a ketogenic diet, they are perfect for an on-the-go snack."
