Hi there, I've been looking for a good protein bar recipe for sometime now and I've never found one that appears to give me the macros that I'm looking for, along with the ingredients that I have and that is something simple to make.

So taking all of the best bits of recipes I found, I used the MFP recipe tool to make up my very own protein bar. Just looking at the ingredients and instructions to make, do you think it would work? Note, I'm suggesting that these are bars that are chilled/frozen, not cooked, but I don't know if that's a good idea.

Anyway, you can see the recipe via my blog using the link http://bit.ly/Ovtcvw or below:

Protein bars with high protein content and average to low carb and fat content. Chocolate flavour. 8 Servings. Cost per serving is approximately £0.67p or US$1.05.

Carbs: 140g
Fat: 28g

Nutritional Values per Serving:
Calories: 213
Carbs: 18g

Wrap the bars in plastic wrap or cling film and store in a fridge.
