Meal Replacement Bars (Cutting)

Visitor Note:

"the bars never set and they're mushy and therefore impossible to cut"

Combine in Large Mixing Bowl

8 Scoops Whey (Vanilla is very good)
3 Cups Oats
1 Package Sugar Free Fat Free Pudding (Any flavor is good)
2 Cups Skim Milk

Mix until a sticky batter is formed (may take a few minutes)

use a large spoon to spread out the mix into the bottom of a Pam-sprayed glass or metal cooking tray (spread until even)
put in the fridge overnight and cut into 8 equal bars that yield:
3g fat
28g carbs
29g protein
257 calories
These bars taste amazing, and are perfect for: breakfast, pre OR postworkout


STRAWBERRY & BANANA MEAL REPLACEMENT BARS


Makes 6 bars
1 cup raw oatmeal
5 scoops of strawberry protein powder ( 90g of protein)
1/4 cup fat free cream cheese
1/2 cup non fat dry milk powder
2 egg whites
1/4 cup water
1 1/2 bananas, mashed
2 tsp. canola oil (this is the secret to moist bars instead of the traditional dry bar)

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray a 9x9 square pan with cooking spray & set aside. In a medium bowl combine oatmeal, Protein powder & dry milk. Set aside. In another bowl beat together with an electric hand mixer, cream cheese, egg whites, bananas, water & oil. Add the oat mixture & continue to beat until the two are combined. Pour batter into the prepared pan & bake for 30-35 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

No Bake Protein Bar

5 tbsp natural peanut butter (chunky or smooth)
1/2 cup dry oat meal or whole grain hot cereal (uncooked)
1/2 cup oat flour (double the dry oats if you do not have oat flour)
6 scoops chocolate whey protein (approximately 132 grams worth of low-carb protein powder)
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons flax seeds (optional)
1 cup non-fat dry milk
1/2 cup water (depending on what type of protein you use, you may need to add more)
Modifications: Use vanilla protein and replace ~1/4 cup of the oatflour with a variety of nuts, seeds, or dried berries.
PREPARATION:

Spray an 8x8 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Combine dry ingredients in a medium size bowl and mix well. Add peanut butter and mix - the mixture will be crumbly and dry. Add water & vanilla. Sponsored Links

Using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, everything until a dough forms. The dough will be sticky. Spread dough into pan using a clean wooden spoon or spatula that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Refrigerate a few hours (or freeze for an hour) and cut into 9 squares. Wrap bars individually (use sandwich bags or plastic wrap) or store in covered container between sheets of wax paper. Keep refrigerated.

    1 cup flour
    3/4 cup sugar
    1-1/4 tsp baking powder
    1/4 tsp salt

    1/3 cup nonfat milk
    1/4 cup shortening
    1 egg
    1/2 tsp vanilla extract

    1-1/2 cups fresh blueberries (you can substitute partially thawed frozen blueberries)

    2 eggs
    1-1/4 cups part skim ricotta cheese
    1/3 cup sugar
    1/4 tsp vanilla extract


Directions

In a small bowl combine first four ingredients (flour - salt). Add next four (milk - vanilla). Beat with an electric mixer on low speed until combined. Beat on medium speed one minute. Pour into greased 9x9x2 pan; spread evenly. Sprinkle blueberries over batter.

In a medium bowl mix remaining 2 eggs with a fork. Add ricotta, sugar and vanilla, beat until combined. Pour over blueberries and spread evenly.

Bake at 350 for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool and cut into 16 squares. Store, covered, in the refrigerator. Good warm; extra-yummy cold!

I have never tried substituting Splenda for sugar or egg whites instead or whole eggs, but I am betting it could easily be done in this recipe!
