Maple Bars Recipes

From Leigh Belair - Tastes great!

Simple and small, about 100cal with a solid 8g protein. Higher in carbs b/c of oats and pumpkin puree. Very healthy!

Wrap these moist bars individually, or place them in a cookie tin between layers of wax or parchment paper.

Healthy Bars

I got this from dashingdish.com. A FANTASTIC site that i've only begun to devour. I have not tried this yet, but I wanted to put the calories into my food tracker for the future. It sounds fantastic! Here is the intro from her site (http://www.dashingdish.com/2010/06/peanut
-butter-maple-protein-bars/):

I like protein bars because they are portable, quick, and will hold you over until you get a chance to eat a meal! The only problem that I have with so many protein bars is that they really are nothing more than a glorified candy bar! They tend to either have tons of artificial ingredients…Or they are loaded with sugar and calories!

So, I was on a quest to make my own protein bars! I knew that they had to have the following qualifications: They had to be tasty, portable, peanut butter, and have less than 200 calories, and more than 10 grams of protein per bar.

No bake, high protein bars. Herbalife Formula 1 and Protein Drink mix both are used in this recipe!

A great 'on the go' snack or breakfast - good source of fiber and protein!

Yummy quick breakfast bars

Maple syrup, maple syrup and raisins make these eggless pumpkin bars a real treat! Chewy, tender and packed with flavour, they're great any time of the year!

My Mom's favorite flavors...this should help encourage her to eat healthy!

Excellent energy bar with only whole food ingredients. Use the base of a nut butter, maple syrup, popped quinoa and rolled oats. Then add your favorite additions to personalize.

Experimenting with breakfast bars, and this is my first try... As a nursing mom, I need the nutrition, but sometimes don't get my breakfast in due to caring for my baby. These will hopefully be good for ANY person, man or woman, nursing or not, though! :)
