Healthy Protein bars -choc banana flavor
i like protein bars for convenience but hate all the sugars, fats, colouring and preservatives they put in them to make them nutritionally shite
this is a healthy recipe for a protein bar mixture - it actually comes out more looking like a cake but u can cut them into pieces and take them with you to work nice and easily as they stick together well and dont crumble everywhere
INGREDIENTS
300g banana (raw)
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
12 large egg whites
4oz skim milk
200g whole grain oats
1/3 cup splenda
90g chocolate whey
DIRECTIONS
mix all into large mixing bowl. pour into non stick cake pan - bake at 150 degrees Celsius until firm (around 25mins). leave until cold then cut to size
i cut mine into 8 slices
NUTRITIONAL INFO per slice (if cut into 8slices)

they dont taste as good as regular pro bars but they are a hell of a lot healthier and very easy to make
ENJOY
Boosting the Cals and Flavour
i found a nicer way to eat them - tastier and more cals
i heated up one slice in the microwave and added 200g non fat Bio-Yogurt, a handful of blackberries and one scoop of whey (i used butter cream toffee which is amazing)
the totals for this dish were:
PRO: 55g
CARBS: 45g
FAT: 2g
KCALS: 418
i had this for breakfast this morning - really nice
