Here's a few recipes I found for protein bars.

Protein/meal replacement bars
RECIPE 1


Combine in large mixing bowl:
3 Cups oats
1/2 cup peanut butter (crunchy or smooth)
1 cup milk ( preferably skimmed)
3 Scoops favourite protein powder (chocolate is best!)
Sprinkle of cinnamon (if desired)

Mix until a sticky batter is formed (may take a few minutes and is an arm workout in it self!)

Use a large spoon to spread out the mix into the bottom of a glass or metal cooking tray (spread until even)
Sprinkle with more cinnamon or something like splenda to taste.
Put in the fridge overnight and cut into 8 equal bars that yield:-

PER BAR
285 calories
11g fat (good monounsaturated fats)
26g carbs (all low GI)
21g protein (maybe more dependant on which protein powder you use)

RECIPE 2
Ingredients:
* 6 Egg Whites
* 1 Egg Yolk (for those extra amino acids)
* 200g Porridge Oats (Complex Carbohydrate)
* 3 servings of casein protein chocolate Powder (Any other flavour could be used.)
* 150ml Pure Orange Juice (For Flavour and Vitamin C)
* 2 Sliced Bananas (Flavour and Sweetness)
* 2 Tablespoons Cookable Sweetener (Such as Hermesetas or Canderel)
Preparation:
1. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
2. Put all the ingredients into your mixing bowl and stir until you have a nice even, mixture. (Should look pretty gooey.)
3. Find a baking tray approx. 8inch by 8inch and 1inch deep.
4. Rub your baking tray with vegetable oil or cooking spray to prevent to mixture sticking.
5. Pour your mixture into the baking tray and then place in the oven.
6. Bake for around 20 Minutes or until golden brown.
7. Leave to cool and then cut into 3 pieces with a sharp knife

RECIPE 3
ingredients:
8 oz fat free cream cheese
4 scoops protein powder ( i use chocolate)
3 cups whole oats
1/2 cup splenda
Dash of cinnamon ( to taste)

Combine splenda, cream cheese, protein, and cinnamon in a bowl and mix with an electric mixer on high til its smooth.

add the oats and mix with the mixer until you have a fairly homogeneous mixture.

note if it is too thick add a 1/4 cup of milk or water

spray an 8x8 pan with PAM. spread the mixture in the pan. sprinkle some additional splenda on top and place in the fridge for an hour.

I cut mine into ten bars for a breakdown of

154 cals, 17.8g carb, 15g protein, 1.8 g fat



RECIPE 4
Ingredients
1 cup oat flour
5 scoops whey protein powder
¼ cup cocoa powder
½ cup non-fat dry milk powder
2 egg whites
½ teaspoon chocolate flavouring
¼ cup creamy peanut butter
¼ - 1/3 cup water
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a 9”x9” baking pan with wax paper.

Combine all dry ingredients in blender -- Process on high speed 2 minutes. In a bowl,
beat eggs, flavourings, and peanut butter. Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture. With an electric mixer, slowly add the water until dough becomes a “gooey play-dough” consistency. Pour batter in lined pan, spreading, or pressing dough to an even thickness.

Bake for about 15 minutes. Remove from pan and allow to cool slightly. Remove wax paper and allow to cool completely. Cut into 8 bars.

yes coz iam not sure about all of yall but as a 17 year old iam not fund of goey stinky bars which, although, are good for muscle building so ill eat them anyway, id prefer real food like for instance, what to eat on brown bread i mostly eat cheese or salami they contain quite a lot proteins and shit and drink a lot of milk / orange juice or other vitamine drinks and eat greens / fruit / meat, any specific stuff i should look out for when eating or what should i eat, like before going to work id like to eat some heavy protein shit but not like standing in the kitchen for 5 hours to make protein bars :P.

my crazy typing is weird i know ( iam from holland x) ) but my question: what best to eat when trying to get a healthy muscled body except for specific bodybuilding food?

First off could you resize your avatar as it`s a little on the big side...cheers.

Foods to eat...

Chicken, turkey, red meat, fish & oily types of fish, nuts seeds, fruits, veg, cheeses, natural yoghurts, whiolewheat bread, pasta, brown & wild rice, olive oil, butter (small amounts)....

Or another way as some would put it, avoid anything manmade and out of a box or packet....
