Today I wanted to make protein bars. I had peanut butter that I did not even open as yet and wanted to make a healthy snack. I found this website (http://neilarey.com/) which had really fantastic workout routines, I loved the drawings, and saw that Neila Ray also had a recipe for a protein bar. I actually did my own take on it and sort of combines her protein bars recipe with her energy ballz recipe.
My ingredients – Whey protein, raisins, dried cranberries, dried apricots, peanut butter, oats, dried ginger
Raisins, dried cranberries and dried apricots
Coconut cream
Whey protein and peanut butter added to coconut cream
I then added the oat mixture I had (rolled oats, raisins, pistachio nuts, almonds, and more)… MIX. I didn’t have a mixer, so I used the natural mixer, my hand.
Looking good…
I then flattened the mixture out on a plate and cut it up into bars
I wrapped them in wax paper and placed them all in the refrigerator. I ended up with a lot of them! I think 35 of them.
If I am unable to have breakfast before leaving home on mornings I take one with me and have it to tide me over until lunch. They taste great! And my favorite part is the little surprise of ginger pieces that I get in mine. Mmmmm!!!
