    Quest - chocolate chip cookie dough, apple pie, cinnamon bun & vanilla almond torte! 20 grams of protein, plus 17-18 grams fiber. GNC gives a 20% discount for a box, plus an extra 20% the first week of every month, if you have a Gold Card.

    My dad loves the Oh Yeah bars, but only the minis (15grams protein). The bigger bars are 30 grams protein & >300 calories a bar. The carmel peanut Oh Yeah bar is just like eating a candy bar, really delicious!

    If you're interested in Oh Yeah protein bars & Syntrax Nectar powder, this site gives a good discount & they are very quick with delivery.

    Do you like greens? My two faves are the Amazing Grass chocolate peanut butter bars (12g whey protein) and Greens Plus bars (protein and sugar contents vary by flavor, but usually over 10g). The Greens Plus bars taste great IMO, but the Amazing Grass bars are very filling and usually have less ingredients.

    Please follow up and let us know what you liked.

    Half a cup of Kashi original cereal. Mix 1 serving of PB2 powder. Then add a little water to create the peanut butter that holds it together. Put in freezer. Eat.

    115 calories, 20 carbs, 2 fat, 12 protein, 8 fiber.

    Can't beat those macros.

    My husband likes the Oh Yeah bars as well. Think he orders them from bodybuilding.com.

    I make my own - lots of recipes out there but mine is a no bake chocolate-peanut butter one with whey powder, peanut butter and linseed. Easy to make, keep them in the freezer and 20g protein each.

    Recipe please! =)

    ^^^This^^^ but add a scoop of Optimum Nutrition Whey Isolate Chocolate...
    235 calories, 36 grams of protein, 23 grams of carbs, 8 grams of fiber, 4 grams of fat. Forget about Reese's these rock! They are also obviously great for you!

  • My new favorite bars are the uber bars by larabars. They have simple ingredients like nuts fruit honey and sea salt. Really satisfying too

    Quest here too. I love the coconut cashew one. Liked the vanilla almond but I think it has more calories... Haven't tried the cookie dough one yet though. I didn't like a few of them though (apple pie, strawberry cheesecake, lemon pie).

    I did a lot of research on this. I have additional criteria: I can't eat gluten/dairy and I was trying to be low fat too. Here are my top choices:

    Simply Bar (many flavors): 160 calories, 16g protein, 3g fat, 16g carb, 4g fiber, 3g sugar
    Odwalla Chocolate Peanut Butter: 200 cal, 12g protein, 6g fat, 26g carbs, 2g fiber, 17g sugar
    Purefit Chocolate Brownie: 210 cal, 18g protein, 6g fat, 25g carbs, 4g fiber, 13g sugar

    As you can see, the Simply Bar stands out for being so low calorie/fat/sugar/carbs for so much protein. I have them on auto-order through Amazon. :flowerforyou:

    Anywhere to get the Simply bars locally to try?
