Let Ole Ranger hook ya up my young Brother.....

Ranger Gorp Bars

12 to 20 scoops of protein powder(high protein, low carbs)
4 packs of oatmeal
half a jar of all natural peanut butter
6 tabs(crushed) Vit. B-6
6 tabs(crushed) Ginger Root
Spring Water
Cinn. and Nutmeg to taste
12 egg whites(cooked and crushed)

Mix everything in a large bowl, add spring water, stir, nuke in the microwave, add more spring water, repeat process until desired thickness

roll out on wax paper, cut into bars, or roll into balls and wrap individually in wax paper for quick snacks....Me??? I just eat it right out da jug....great for pre, and post workouts....and you can make as much as you want, cover with Choc. add you own special flavors....etc. Let your imagination be your guide....

Before you ask....the B-6 and Ginger Root help with added protein absorbtion....

Enjoy

Do you want high protein, or high protein and low carbs too? A lot of the "high protein" bars have a lot of sugar, and if you want to limit the carb intake you need to stay away from them. Atkins is low in carbs, so are Biochem Lo Carb bars, Dr.'s Diet, and Revolution bars.

If you order over the web, I find www.netrition.com usually has pretty good prices. The Atkins bars that you say you have seen for $2.67 are sold at Netrition for $1.66 My personal preference is for the Dr.’s Diet bars, because they taste like real candy bars, while only containing about 2g of carb and adding about 25g of protein.

You guys know how I am about carbs, I buy these damn boxes of the bars called "Carb Control" low carbs and 22 grams of protein per bar, taste pretty good too. They have like 3 grams of carbs, and loaded with other stuff. I eat one every mornin for breakfast along with a few berled eggs. (Just call me the gas man). Maybe we down south are the only ones' that have em. I thnk I pay about 5 bucks for a box of about 10 or so. They also make the shakes too, good stuff. Hang on let me go get the name brand. BRB.. ok hell they are called "Carb Solutions" with 2 grams of fat and 6 bars in a box. About 5 bucks, so less than a dollar a bar. You guys might want to check them out.

Damn $5 a box I was paying 9 (still cheap as hell) at sams club for those same bars. I also have been eating Eas Advantedge. I acutely like way the advantedge taste better and the protein is 26 and carbs are 2.5.

Most "protein bars" are nothing but candy bars with protein. The Atkins bars may be expensive, but they dont have a lot of junk in them.

Unfortunately they also leave out the protein. Not much worth eating in my opinion. If I eat a bar I want close to 30 grams, otherwise you can forget it.
