~~Strawberry & Banana Meal Replacent Bars~~
Makes 6 bars

1 c. raw oatmeal
5 scoops of Strawberry protein powder [90g. of protein]
1/4 c. fat free cream cheese
1/2 c. non fat dry powder milk
2 egg whites
1/4 c. water
1 1/2 bananas, mashed
2 tsp. Canola oil [this is the secret ingredient to keeping these bars moist instead of the traditional dry bar]
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray a 9 x 9" square pan with cooking spray and set aside.
In a med. bowl combine oatmeal, protein powder, and dry milk. Set aside. In another bowl beat together with an electric hand mixer; cream cheese, egg whites, bananas, water and oil. Add the oat mixture and continue to beat until the two are combined. Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Makes 6 bars.

Low Carb - Protein Fudge Bars
Haven't tried this yet but will soon.

I was trying to come up with a high protein bar bar with stats close to the Atkins bars, but no glycerine. These come out chewy and look like fudge. They don't taste as good as sugar fudge, but the taste is still good. Much cheaper to make than buying Atkins.


7 scoops Chocolate Designer Protein powder (7 scoops equals 2 1/3 cups) (122.5 pro/10.5 carb) **I will be using Schwartz**
1/2 cup melted butter
4 oz. cream cheese (8 pro/4 carb)
1/2 cup walnuts (10 pro/5 carb)

Melt butter and cream cheese in microwave. Stir until smooth. Mix in protein powder. Stir until mixed. This will be very thick and hard to stir. Add chopped walnuts and mix.
Put in a greased bread pan. Chill. Cut into 8 pieces. When firm, you can wrap each piece in plastic wrap and store in fridge.

Yield: 8 generous bars
Protein per bar: 17.5
Carbs per bar: 2.43
 
Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 1/2 cups powdered non fat milk
1 cup sugar free or reduced calorie fructose sweetened pancake syrup
(nutrition stats based on reduced calorie..s/f syrup may reduce carbs a little more)
2 egg whites
1/4 cup Orange Juice
1 tsp Vanilla
1/4 c. natural applesauce
4 scoops chocolate whey protein powder

Directions:
-Preheat overn to 325
-Mix all the dry stuff in bowl to blend it
-Add in remaining ingredients and mix well. Consistency is sort of like cookie dough
-Spread on cooking sheet coated with non-stick spray. You can use a 9X12 baking dish if you want it thicker.
-Bake until edges are crisp and browned.
-Cut into 10

#1 Here is the recipe:

16 ounces Natural peanut butter
8 tablespoons honey
six scoops of Optimum Chocolate whey protein powder
1 cup of uncooked oatmeal

Mix the pb and honey in a bowl, microwave on full for 80 secs. Add the rest and mix together. Can add raisins/nuts etc to taste. Smooth into 13x9 tray and leave for 20 mins. Cut into 10 to 12 equal bars and wrap and store in fridge.

This is a great tasting recipe that I modified from one I found on 'bolex

Now here is the breakdown on a batch of the goodies:

Protein: 254 grams
Carbohydrates: 282 grams
Fats: 236 grams

This batch gives you a whopping 4268 calories. Thats right, over 4000 Calories and 250+ grams of protein.

I made these.

Good finger food. Perfect crispness for me, not so gooey as to stick to my fingers and not so crispy that crumbs go everywhere.

Perhaps it was because my whey protein is only mildly flavored, but the only thing I could taste was a trace of OJ and mild syrup. Still yummy IMO, but I think that most people who aren't in the depths of cutting wouldn't care much for them.

I am planning to try it again with a more strongly flavored vanilla, perhaps that makes the difference.

And they are pretty filling.
 
Made these 2 more times since than.

the 2nd time I used a strongly favored vanilla protein. Turned out very good. The maple syrup+vanilla flavor came through strongly.

3rd time I switched out 1 cup of oats for 1 cup of cocoa rice krispies. They turned out more cake-like in the center. A little less calories as well.

Made these...came out incredible. Would add maybe 1/4 cup more raisins, an extra scoop of PB and maybe just a little more water next time.

Was just gonna post this.....these are Wardog bars....I've tried them....they're good.
 
Damn I'll have to try one of these out. I wonder if you could use a container of Egg Whites, whey protein powder, cocoa, flax oil, PB and some oatmeal.

It will be healthy as shit!! They'd have Egg, whey and the PB protein plus the oatmeal for high carbs cocoa/PB for taste and the flax/PB for EFA's and healthy fats. Toss in a glass of some milk (lactaid for me) and you're money!! I'll work on some kinda batch this wkend and post it. It would save me $$ on those Tri-O-Plex bars (12 for $25).
