This one may take a few extra minutes to prepare, but it is super easy to make. The bonus is that it provides a boost of healthy energy along with a generous helping of protein and fiber. These are great before or after the gym, when you are on the run or when you have to skip a meal but don’t want to miss out on your healthy nutrients. These can be a meal replacement.

Directions:

Quickly pour contents over dry mixture and thoroughly mix. Place into oiled pan and press down to mold pan. Let sit for 24 hours in the refrigerator. Cut into bars. Great protein and fiber! Enjoy!
This is one of my favorite snacks. Over the next couple of weeks I will share a few more healthy winter recipes and also provide some other tips on “winterizing” yourself for the cold months ahead.
To your health!
