    These lemon balls are seriously so easy to make. All you need to do is process 5 ingredients in your food processor or high-speed blender, roll into balls, and then place in your freezer to set.

    How easy is that??

    Usually, I love using macadamias to make my raw desserts like you will find in these Chocolate Caramel Bars and this raw vegan carrot cake, but you can easily substitute cashews (like I did for these lemon balls) or even blanched almonds.
