I am always on the lookout for new recipes, that are EASY, HEALTHY and something my kids will ENJOY. It also doesn't hurt when I happen to have all the ingredients in my pantry!
This recipe is compliments of bodybuilding.com
Chocolate Protein Bar

Serving size= 2 bars

Directions:
Pre-Heat oven to 350 degrees
1/2 cup Rolled Oats
2 Scoops of Vanilla Protein Powder
3 Tbs. of Baking Cocoa
1/2 Tsp Baking Soda
1/4 Tsp Kosher Salt
8 packets of Stevia- (or 1/2 cup equivalent of)
4 egg whites
1 cup Applesauce
Mix Dry ingredients and slowly add wet ones. Bars will take about 30 minutes to cook depending on oven. To check if they are done stick a sharp object down the center, if it wipes clean the bars are done.
I like to eat this as a post-exercise treat or even when I am craving something sweet. I haven't tried adding anything to them, but I bet they would taste delicious with toated coconuts or instant espresso for a REAL pick me up!
Enjoy- and tell me what you think!
