Homemade Protein Bars

Okay I stole this recipe from my cousin Lindsey and I'm so happy I did!! My husband is obsessed with protein so when I saw these, I knew he would love it if I made them. I actually halved this recipe because we're leaving out of town pretty soon so I didn't want to make what we wouldn't be able to eat. So whether you're a health nut or not, these are a must try! It feels like you're eating a no bake cookie but you're getting TONS of protein. YUM! :)


HOMEMADE PROTEIN BARS

2 1/2 c. peanut butter (I like the natural kind because its runnier- i.e. Adams brand)
2 c. honey (I like the raw kind taste better) or agave
2 c. protein powder or powdered milk (I like the chocolate protein powder-makes it taste like no-bake cookies)
3-4 c. oats
1/4 c. wheat germ
2-4 Tbsp. ground flaxseed

Mix in bowl. Press onto a cookie sheet. Stays together better if placed in the fridge. Great healthy snack!! Enjoy!
