Homemade Protein Bars page 2

I've been doing something very similar for quite a while. I often add a teaspoon or two of wildflower honey to sweeten things up a bit.

Nice!! I wish I had discovered this a while ago too. Could have used it! lol

Cool recipe, thanks.

Yw!

Ooh! I follow your blog, and if you look at my journal, I posted that I made those yesterday.

I could not find the protein powders that you suggested, so I had to use what I had on hand: Vega vanilla chai. It's not completely primal or paleo as it has sprouted brown rice protein but no dairy, fillers or other stuff. I used almond butter and added some dark chocolate chips.

My husband went CRAZY for them after first wrinkling his nose at me. My 5-year-old loved them too.

Thank you for the great idea!

WOOT! You're welcome! How do I find your journal?

Thanks! This should link to my journal. I'm a "recovering vegan", so I'm very new to some of the primal/paleo cooking, though I wasn't a junk food vegan and have been using whole foods, nut butters, coconut products for a long time.

Recovering Vegan goes Primal!

Cool! Thanks. I was a vegan for yrs and a raw food vegan for 1 year. Now I'm paleo and lovin' it. Who knew??

I am going to try this! I have some SunWarrior vanilla and chocolate at home, but the only nut butter I currently have is peanut... not exactly paleo/primal... but I don't have anything else at home right now (although I want to pick up some almond butter or something when I next go shopping).

I love peanut butter and think the no peanut butter rule is dumb, lol. We only go through a small jar a month, so it's no big really. I love Peanut Butter & Co!

That's really great! I was thinking about how to produce such high protein to gain a good body strength. Now you solve this problem, these protein bars are really good for gym workers and bodybuilders. I am not a bodybuilder but I need that protein because I do regular exercise.

I've wondered about the peanut butter controversy as well............ but according to Mark - peanuts have a MOLD that is very unhealthy!!! So I'm assuming the mold is transferred into the peanut butter.............. But all things aside! I absolutely LOVE peanut butter!! I have avoided it at all costs since going primal. But I don't know............... peanut butter rocks! and if I could use it to make these awesome protein bars....... well, sorry Mark - but I just might have to go this route. Almond butter is much more expensive!!! Sometimes we just have to do what is most economical.
