MuscleAddiction
Beast ***e!!!
I am addicted to these little bites of heaven, and a pan does not last very long in our home now that my wife and little girl found out how good they taste as well.
On my constant quest to build muscle, strength, and endurance, I am always looking for ways to get my nutrition clean, healthy, but also pack some macros.
I used to buy and eat the store bought protein bars, you know the ones I'm talking about the ones you buy in bulk at Costco. For quite a while I was just turned off of the mass produced bars in the shiny wrappers, with ingredients that didn't need to be in a protein bar, so didn't eat any!
Now I am the cook in the family and I can make just about anything, and yes I can make a pretty good protein bar from scratch. I found some recipes of natural homemade protein bars online, and switched out ingredients to make them as organic and fresh as I can.
I got lazy and decided to try Better Protein Bars from NTBM Better Protein Bars - No Bake Protein Bars. All I had to do was open the bag, pour contents into a bowl and add natural peanut butter, honey (or Agave Nectar), and water...use some elbow grease and give your grip and forearms a good workout mixing the ingredients together, press into a pan (non-stick works great!) smooth them out and put into fridge...pretty much like the recipes online, but there is something in the ingredients that just make them taste really f*cking good! I could eat a pan in one sitting!
The way I make them is using fresh ground organic peanut butter (peanuts ground in a machine at the store and pure peanut butter!), local honey or sometimes Agave Nectar, add water and mold it all together like a kid molding with Playdough . Let me just tell you, these are my little bars of deliciousness! I took some photos of the process below and how mine turned out, and I made the Chocolate Raspberry which are my second favorite next to Original Peanut Butter!!!
I noticed there are quite a few recipes on this forum for protein bars and am going to try one recipe from Mrs. P that looks pretty good, but I will tell you, for $10 a bag these things are my favorite snack! Check them out for yourself, you will like what you taste and you control the ingredients that go into making them, ingredients that do belong in a protein bar!
Yum!!!
