Protein Bar Recipes

So someone pointed out to me that it says sugar free fat free jello!!
This is how I got the recepie and I use jello PUDDING mix not "jello"
Sorry if anyone tried with a fruit flavored jello.... Lol! It was prolly gross!!!!This one is from Bodybuilding.com forums and looks really easy!
No-Bake Easy Protein Bars
2 cups Quaker oats (or equivalent)
2 tbsp natural peanut butter
8 scoops (240 g) generic brand whey protein powder (or equivalent)
1 package sugar-free, fat free-Jell-O
Dash of cinnamon
Dash of vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
1 cup COLD water
After the bars set up in the fridge, I put them in the freezer for 2 hours and then cut them into 8 individual pieces. After a workout, I let them thaw for 30 minutes or so and they are consistently firm and not squishy or runny. Why? The Jell-O mix. Be sure to use cold water when mixing the Jell-O and whey, as it sets up nicer. Aside from baking, these bars are second-to-none to being able to stay firm when thawed out. They yield (approximately) per bar:
225 calories
6 g fat
23.5 g protein
I encourage anyone who makes their own bars to experiment with different ingredients to find something that not only tastes good, but also provides them with their own individual nutritional needs. The greatest thing about designing and making your own product (in this case, protein bars) is being able to substitute and improvise to make something that appeals to you.
This one sounds good albeit most of all due to the amount of protein in each bar. I'm a bit nervous about the Jell-O in a protein bar, because I've never liked the texture of the stuff, however it's worth a shot!!0 -
