No-Bake Protein Bars
12 – 16 servings (depends on the size of your baking/casserole dish)

Ingredients
1 cup of almond milk (original; unsweetened) - I used Almond Breeze Original, Unsweetened
3 scoops of whey protein powder (chocolate or vanilla) - I used Body Fortress - 100% Premium Whey Protein Vanilla flavor
3 cups of rolled oats
1/2 cup of natural peanut (or almond) butter - I used Maranatha - Natural Almond Butter - No Salt, Roasted
1/2 cup of dark-chocolate chips or dried cranberries - I used cranberries

Instructions
Mix all ingredients together in large bowl. You can use a spoon or your hands until it's well mixed.
You can make two variations with this recipe (I'm sure there's more, but I haven't experimented yet). First, use chocolate protein powder and dark-chocolate chips. Or second, use vanilla protein powder and dried cranberries. I'm sure you could substitute raisins or even nuts too. Today I used vanilla protein power with dried cranberries.
Spread / flatten into bottom of casserole dish and place in the fridge.
When you're ready to eat, cut into bar-sized pieces.
Warning: they are a little gooey!

    They aren't very big - maybe 3 cm x 3 cm. But they are very filling ... you wouldn't want to eat more than that.

    I have made them and a few things. Put in the freezer for 30 minutes or so to really solidify for cutting. Put them in baggies or something or the color goes funny when exposed to air, they are fine to eat just had a funny colouring.

    I made them and used hemp powder, almond breeze original unsweetened, old fashioned oats, organic pumpkin seed butter and a little alcohol free vanilla extract and cacao nibs. I love the taste the only thing was they are very gooey if left unrefrigerated or taken in a cooler to work. When I ate one at work I was able to roll it in a ball. I love them though.

    Put parchment paper in the bottom of the dish for easy removal. Freeze excess and then pack frozen in lunch box, it will defrost nice and not be so gooey when you eat it there.
