Homemade protein bars?

Could you make a homemade protein bar without using a protein powder? I have seen whole food based protein shake recipes but wanted to try making bars without using whey powder. What ingredients could you add for protein without a ton of calories? Any ideas?

    Don't have a Pinterest. Don't plan on it. What are they? I looked on Google but can't find anything that really adds protein without powder

    Bob's Red Mill Textured Vegetable Protein.

    12g protein, 80 calories per 24g serving (that's 1/4 cup dry measure).

    Its just crunchy little dried protein nuggets, with a very neutral flavor profile. I use it in all kinds of stuff, and baked it into homemade fruit-and-nut granola style "protein" bars yesterday. Very tasty. :)
