How To Make Protein Nutrition Bars
From From Stella's Kitchen Cookbook

A great protein nutrition bar at a mere fraction of the cost of packaged protein bars but none of their glycerin, preservatives, or sugar! These easy-to-make low-fat protein barsbars are rich in fiber and taste great with a light spread of natural peanut butter across the top. Served with a protein drink, they make a well-balanced meal.
Difficulty: Easy

Time Required: 8 minutes to prepare

Here's How:
1.. Preheat oven to 325°. Mix all dry ingredients in bowl and blend well.
2.. In separate bowl, combine eggwhites, orange juice, applesauce, and sugar-free syrup and stir until well blended.
3.. Stir liquid mixture into dry ingredients and mix well. The consistency will be thick and similar to cookie dough.
4.. Spread batter onto a baking sheet coated with non-stick spray. Use a 9x12 baking dish if you prefer thicker bars. Bake until edges are crisp and browned (about 15 minutes depending on bar thickness)
5.. Cut into 10 bars and refrigerate in airtight container.
Tips:
1.. If you find you want a more moist consistency, add a little more applesauce to the recipe for softness.
2.. Baking with applesauce: Did you know you can replace the oil in a recipe with an equal measure of applesauce? Applesauce will add the same moisture but not the added fat and it won't alter the flavor.
3.. Bars may also be frozen and thawed in microwave before eating.
4.. Per Serving: Calories- 140 Carbs- 23g Protein- 15g Fat- .5 g Fiber- 4 g
What You Need:
a.. 3 1/2 cups quick oats
b.. 1 1/2 cups powdered non-fat milk
c.. 1 cup sugar-free (diabetic) pancake syrup (Cozy Cottage, Cary's or Howard's bran
d.. 2 egg whites, beaten
e.. 1/4 cup orange juice
f.. 1 tsp vanilla
g.. 1/4 c. natural applesauce (no added sugar)
h.. 4 scoops chocolate or vanilla protein powder

This sounds good. But I have never seen protien powder, do you have to go to a health food store to get it?

Yes, you can buy it at a health store or purchase it online. Truth be told I would decide to skip or substitute. ;)

there isn't a health food store around here, either. I too would like ideas for a substitute...or maybe I could try making them without this weekend, to see what they are like.

I would either omit, or use coco powder or wheat germ. Wheat germ usually can be found in larger supermarkets. The protein powder appears to be a flavoring partly.
