Healthy Recepies For Teens

[WhiteFire]

BTW, i would appreciate feedback, and i hope that one day i can make this into a seperate page of some sort or something. Point of this is that i noticed we have all these sections for older people and nothing for teens. hope this helps. the research helped me!!

PART 1

These recipies are for the money challenged teen. We all see the mrps and protien bars in the stores and (at least i do) wish we could afford them. but, usually, we dont have the cash flow for 2.50 a bar. lol anyway. point is these are fast and easy(most of them any away) recepies for all sorts of crap. they are also great to make if your mom is like mine and has something against either spending money or protien. mine is always complaining that im gonna kill myself with it. soi this way its hidden, and you are saving a whole assload of money by not buying them from GNC. in regards to protien, feel free to use generic 5 lb tub of it. it works just as well and is cheap so you dont have to use your more expensive ****!! Also, i did not get these recepies from bb.com or any of the forums so dont whine that you "just posted them" cuz i dont care. also, most are not my origional creations, just variations on stff, so props to those who made them!!! good luck, i hope these help(i know they helped me) and good eating!!!!


Fast, Cheap and Simple

1 cup Natural peanut butter
8 tablespoons honey
1&1/4 cups whey protein powder
1 cup of uncooked oatmeal

Mix the pb and honey in a bowl, microwave on full for 80 secs. Add the rest and mix together (get your hands in man!!) can add raisins/nuts etc to taste. Smooth into 13x9 tray and leave for 20 mins. Cut into 10 to 12 equal bars and wrap and store in fridge!!

protein 20g, carbs 30g and fat 20g of which only 3g are saturated. Those figures are per bar, don't forget your 128g fat divides into 10 to 12 bars and most of the fat in pb is healthy fat which the body uses similar to carbs. The ammounts may vary slightly depending on recipe adjustments, they are well worth the 10 to 15 mins to make. Enjoy your eating bro's


FOR VEGANS!!!!!

a 40-30-30 zone food

3 cups rolled oats
3 tablespoons vital wheat gluten
1 cup soy protein
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons fructose (or however much sugar)
1/2 cup pecans or sunflower seeds chopped (optional..i guess)
3 tablespoons canola oil
1/3 cup chopped dried fruit or raisins
1/2 cup water or apple juice
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup flour, oat or rice flour; as needed to thicken
1 cup or more additional liquid (milk maybe? or if you are really serious....soy milk?) to achieve texture (varies, depending on additions)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees, grease a cookie sheet.

Mix everything but the flour, let it sit a few minutes, then beat with a fork until it begins to thicken. Add enough liquid or flour to make a stiff dough.

Roll or pat out on the cookie sheet, about 1/4 inch thick, cut 20 pieces. Cut with cookie cutter or roll out a rectangle on a greased cookie sheet and separate into 4x5 rectangles for 20 biscuits or bars.

Bake 12 minutes.

The apple juice adds additional carbs, but nice flavor, and some folks enjoy a little cinnamon. If you are NOT vegan, you can beat in some eggs and reduce the water or apple juice for a little better texture and protein.



HIGH PROTEIN SNACK BARS

1/2 c. butter
1 c. peanut butter
1 1/2 c. or 12 oz. carob chips
1 c. wheat germ
1 c. shredded coconut
1 c. chopped nuts
1/2 c. sesame seeds
1/2 c. sunflower seeds
May substitute granola for these ingredients.

Melt butter, peanut butter and chips. Mix all and press into 9x13 inch pan. Chill until firm. really easy....really really easy!!!)

(Note: Although these are sugar free they are not low calorie - high fat content.)


Cereal Protien Bars

(makes a decent breakfast)

1/2 c. white syrup
3/4 c. crunchy peanut butter
3 c. Rice Krispies, corn flakes, ect.
1 tsp. vanilla

Boil sugar and syrup until sugar dissolves. Add vanilla and peanut butter. Stir until melted. Add cereal. Put in buttered 9-inch pan. DON'T BAKE! Sprinkle 1 package butterscotch chips and 1/2 package chocolate chips over top. (or all chocolate if thats what your into) Place under broiler for just a few seconds. Spread, cool, and cut.


Oat ?n? Banana Slices

Ingredients:

6 Egg Whites
1 Egg Yolk (for those extra amino acids)
200g Porridge Oats (Complex Carbohydrate)
60g Banana Flavoured Whey Protein Powder (Any other flavor 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:

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
Put all the ingredients into your mixing bowl and stir until you have a nice even, mixture. (Should look pretty gooey.)
Find a baking tray approx 8inch by 8inch and 1inch deep.
Rub your baking tray with vegetable oil or cooking spray to prevent to mixture sticking.
Pour your mixture into the baking tray and then place in the oven.
Bake for around 20 Minutes or until golden brown.
Leave to cool and then cut into 8 pieces with a sharp knife.

Nutrition: Each slice contains approximately: Protein: 12.4g from mixed sources (Whey, Egg & Oats) Carbohydrate: 21.6g Fat: 2.1g Fat Please Note that these nutritional values have been calculated using the figures from the ingredients, added together and divided by eight (the number of slices). These figures may vary depending on the manufacturer of your protein powder and also the size of the eggs that you use.
(each slice contains 155 kcals.) Comment: Oats are a complex carbohydrate which offer a slow and sustained flow of energy. Oats also have high fibre and great nutritional value. they make an excellent pre workout meal.


Brownies

Ingredients:

60 grams chocolate protein powder
3/4 cup oat flour (if you don't have any just put some oats in a blender and chop them until they are powder)
3 tbsp sugar
3 tbsp cocoa powder (unsweetened)
a dash salt
2 egg whites
3/4 cup applesauce (unsweetened)
3 tbsp peanut butter
2 tbsp. water
1 tsp. vanilla extract ? optional
Preparation:
Mix the ingredients together and pour into a greased 8x8 pan.
Bake at 350 degrees farengheit for 18 min.
Makes 9 brownies. Each brownie is 30 40 40 balanced.


Chewy Protein Bars

These are not quite like the ones you buy in the store, but I like them. These bars are also balanced 30-40-40 or zone friendly.

Ingredients:

3 tbsp. oatmeal (you can either grind it up into a powder using a blender or just use rolled oats)
3 tbsp. milk
35 grams protein powder
2 tbsp. peanut butter (you could use almond butter or olive oil as well)
2 tbsp. + 3 tablespoons of sugar
2-tbsp. hot water mixes the oatmeal with the milk.

Preparation:
Add the protein powder and peanut butter. Mix until it looks crumbly. If you have big chunks, then make them smaller by mashing them with a fork or whatever.
Mix the sugar with the hot water. Stir until dissolved.
Add the water with sugar to the oatmeal mixture and use your hands to combine everything (dig into them) You really have to use your hands because a spoon or fork just doesn't mix everything properly.
Place the mixture in a wax paper lined container.
Cut into 6 bars and place in the fridge to cool.
Oatmeal Protein Bars:

Ingredients:

3 cups oatmeal
140 grams protein powder
3/4 cup peanut butter
1 cup milk
2 egg whites
1 cup apple sauce
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
You can also add fructose or sugar, I dont because my protein powder is sweetened enough.

Preparation:

Combine the above ingredients and put in a oiled (use pam) 9x9 pan.
Bake @ 350 for 35 min.
Makes 8 bars. When they are cool, put them in the fridge or they will go to shat in a few days.
These are great for breakfast. I use chocolate protein powder and I don't always put apple sauce in (I usually don't have any). I just put more milk in. Make sure that the mixture is not too dry, but it shouldn't be watery like soup either or it will take forever to cook. You can also add cinnamon. I do that when I use vanilla protein powder.


Bulking Bars!!!

Be warned, though. Kinda makes, um, defecation rather enthusiastic.

Ingredients:

300g Oats
25g The Ministry of Fitness Vanilla Whey
40g Crunchy Peanut Butter
2 (60g) Eggs
1 Banana (120g)
1 tablespoon Honey
100ml Regular Milk
Pinch salt
Generous pinch Cinnamon
Preparation:

Add Oats to mixing bowl.
Add whey, mix briefly.
Add pinch salt, and cinnamon.
Add Peanut Butter. Mix, trying to break peanut butter up into small lumps. Mix briefly.
Gradually add lightly beaten eggs, while mixing.
Add (mashed) banana, mix well.
Add honey, mix.
Gradually add milk, whilst mixing.
Place in lightly oiled or greaseproof paper lined square baking tin (I used a 7"x7"x1.5" tin)
Bake at moderate oven temp. (180 deg) for 20-25 mins, or until golden brown.
I have just made these for the first time. They smell nice, are slightly soft-centred due to the banana, and taste quite good, although very oat-ey. I got 8 slices out of the mixture. Each slice is :

135.5 kcals
7.5g Protein
14g Carbs
5.5g Fat
..based on the ingredients used. These bars were made with the intention of convenient food while bulking. I would have preferred more protein in the bars. Next time, I will add more whey, another banana and egg, and possibly less oats. They are great for bulking phase, and if you can change the recepie, prob cutting as well! Enjoy
note; another 50grams of whey would put the Protein to Carbohydrate ratio at 1:1 and this would be good and the bars would still retain their moist, rich texture.

anyway, im gonna go post a few more in like 5, 10 min (this is getting too long) so i hope they help and...ENJOY!

awesom recipes i will probably try them once i get the time by the way how long did it take you yo write this up.

PART 2


This will be more in depth so….well, Ive warned you (more explanation at least!!)


Protien Nutrtion Bar

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 bars are high in fiber content and taste great with a spread of natural peanut butter across the top. with a protein drink, they make a well-balanced meal.
8 minutes to prepare
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:
•3 1/2 cups quick oats
•1 1/2 cups powdered non-fat milk
•1 cup sugar-free (diabetic) pancake syrup (Cozy Cottage, Cary's or Howard's bran
•2 egg whites, beaten
•1/4 cup orange juice

•1/4 c. natural applesauce (no added sugar)

2 tbsp no-sugar peanut butter
2 tbsp butter, melted
½ tsp liquid artificial sweetener
1/4 cup Splenda
1 scoop Vanilla Praline Designer
Whey protein powder, see * Note

Directions

Melt peanut butter and butter in microwave or double boiler. Mix in the sweeteners thoroughly. Add protein powder and stir until it forms a ball. (You may need to use clean hands to aid in the thorough mixing.)
Roll up in ball and knead a bit; then separate into even portions, shaping as desired. Refrigerate until firm.

Peanut Brittle Protein Shake

This is a delicious favorite I discovered quite by accident as I sat staring at my "boring" vanilla protein powder and wanting something sweet. This mimics peanut brittle only in taste. It won't send your blood sugar soaring and it's a fun way to get in some healthy unsaturated fat.

Ingredients:


2 scoops vanilla protein
1 tbsp sugar-free instant butterscotch pudding mix, dry
1 tbsp natural peanut butter, chunky
8 oz. cold water or lowfat milk.
3-6 ice cubes
Directions:

Add all ingredients to blender, blend, and serve. I like to add the peanut butter in last so it stays a little chunky, just like the peanut brittle it is replacing.

The Hulk

This is a pistachio flavored shake that I came up with one busy morning for my son. He loved it because it was green and walked around the rest of the day doing lat spreads that "ripped" his shirt. I loved it because it only added 19 calories to my protein shake.

Ingredients:


2 scoops vanilla protein
1 ½ tbsp sugar-free pistachio pudding mix
1 mint leaf or a few drops peppermint extract (optional)
1 few drops green food coloring (optional)
8 oz. cold water or low-fat milk
3-5 ice cubes
Directions:

Add all ingredients to blender, blend, and pour into cup. This tastes great without the mint so don't worry if you don't have it around. The shake is a light green even without the food coloring but if you want it green (like The Hulk!), you'll need a few drops.

Oatmeal Meal Replacement Shake

This is a homemade meal replacement that contains all the nutrition of a hearty bowl of oatmeal.

Ingredients:

½ cup dry measure oatmeal, cooked in water and cooled
2 scoops vanilla protein
3 dashes cinnamon
1/8 c sugar free maple syrup or equivalent amount brown sugar replacement
1 tbsp chopped almonds (or flaxseed oil or natural peanut butter)

Super Healthy Honey Banana Shake

Super healthy shake that tastes pretty damn good - the flax seed oil helps the nutrients digest gradually so you get a steady supply of protein, I always put some honey in, cause it's healthier than sugar, and after a workout it will feed your body's need for simple sugar.

Ingredients:

1 cup of pure water
1 big scoop of vanilla whey protein powder
3/4 cup of natural yoghurt
1 banana
1 tsp of flax-seed oil
2 tsp of honey
1 tsp spirulena
The spirulena definately changes the color and flavor of this shake alot! So if you cant get used to the taste simply leave it out. The shake provides carbs, protein and plenty of vitamins/minerals, so you can easily use it as a meal replacement.

Heres a couple weird ones I had to include…..if you have the time to do it, feel free. They are also both cheaper(in the long run) than actually going out and buying premaid crap. Some of the first time ingredients are a little expensive, but as youll see, you only really need to buy them once. In the long run it works out great!!


Ingredients
750g strong wholemeal flour
60g butter
2 tsp salt
25g fresh yeast
30g soya flour
500ml tepid water
olive oil for greasing tin
1tsp caster sugar
60g whey protein isolate powder

Method
Put all flours into a bowl, rub butter in with fingertips, then stir in salt and whey isolate powder.

Blend the yeast and caster sugar together until it liquifies, make a well in the middle of the flour mixture and pour in liquified yeast and suagr and then the tepid water. Using a wooden spoon, mix to a soft but not sticky dough

Lightly oil a large bowl. Knead the dough until smooth and elastic. Shape into a round ball and place in the bowl. cover with oiled cling film and leave in a warm place to rise for 1-1.5 hours until the doung has doubled in size.

Turn the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knock back with your fists. Knead vigorously for 2-3 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.

Lightly oil the loaf tin. Shape the dough to fit the tin, tucking the ends underneath to give a smooth top, and place in the tin. Cover lossely with oiled cling film and leave in a warm place to rise for about 30 minutes until the dough reaches the top of the tin.

Lightly dust the top of the loaf with flour and bake in a preheated oven at 230C (450F, Gas 8) for 30-35 minutes until well risen and golden. Turn the loaf out of the tin and tap the base to see if it is cooked: it should sound hollow.

Leave the loaf to cool on a wire rack.



I noticed on one of the posts that people were having trouble finding where to buy beef jerky .I have a recipe for beef jerky that works out far cheaper than buying the pre packed stuff . You need the following 2lb lean braising steak . 3fl oz soy sauce .2 tsp chilli powder 1 tsp onion salt .1 tbsp worcester sauce .half tsp ground white pepper . Remove all the fat from the meat and cut into strips .This is easier if you half freeze the meat first . Then mix with all other ingredients and leave over night . next day put in a very low oven (about 110 should do) on a rack over a tray and leave for about 5-6 hours . Great snack . The first time you make it it may seem expensive but most of the stuff you only buy the first time .

High Protein Snack Ideas
Cottage Cheese is a great high protein snack that is often overlooked for its protein content. Just one half cup serving of low-fat 2% cottage cheese has 16 grams protein. Those who closely monitor their carb intake may be pleased to know that a serving yields only 4-5 grams of carbs. Cottage cheese is also available in 4%, 1%, and fat-free versions and both small curd and large curd sizes. Small curd is drier, cooked longer and cut smaller that its softer, large curd shelf companion.
If you've avoided it because you've envisioned the only way of serving it was plopping it on a lonely lettuce leaf, here are a few flavor combinations for you to try with your next scoop.

Pepper: Sprinkle cottage cheese with a few dashes of fresh crack pepper.

"Tapioca" Pudding: If you like tapioca pudding, try this low-carb alternative. For each ½ cup serving, mix in ½ tsp vanilla flavoring and 1 packet artificial sweetener.

Summer Fruit: A few strawberries, blueberries, diced peaches, chopped banana, or pineapple chunks sprinkled on top go a long way with cottage cheese. Stick with the berries if you prefer low-glycemic fruits. If the fructose is a concern, try using dash of tropical or strawberry-banana flavored sugar-free drink mix as an alternative fruity flavoring.

Morning Preserves: Add 1 tbsp sugar-free or reduced sugar preserves per ½ cup cottage cheese.

Chocolate Mousse: Add a ½ scoop of chocolate flavored protein (or 1 tsp of cocoa + 2 packets artificial sweetener), 1 tbsp sugar-free chocolate instant pudding mix and whip in blender (you may need to add a little water or milk to thin it a little bit). Top with diced walnuts or almonds if desired and chill until set or ready to eat.

One more bar type and a bunch of shakes!! Enjoy!!



Protien in School



recipe for cutting. I have found that this recipe is easy to make, but the bars also hold together very well, and taste very good.

INGREDIENTS

10 tbsp. natural peanut butter
5 egg whites
5 scoops whey protein (I find that chocolate mint tastes the best in this recipe, however chocolate tastes good as well)
2 cups oats (OPTIONAL: For flavor, I dry cook these on a frying pan until they are toasted)
1/2 cup soy milk

DIRECTIONS

Mix the peanut butter and egg whites in a bowl. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, and mix well (so that the mixture appears smooth). Repeat 4-5 times until all traces of egg whites have dissolved into the peanut butter, and your mixture is a smooth consistent one.

Gradually add the protein (one scoop at a time) and stir into the mixture. Next, add the soy milk and follow with the oats. Continue mixing until a thick 'sticky' mixture is present.

Smooth the thick mixture into a 13x9 tray and leave for 20-30 minutes. Cut into 10 equal size bars. Individually wrap each bar (I use aluminum foil) and store in the fridge.

one final recepie...try it...fun for the whole family. great easter present!!! takes a buttload of work, but its worth it if you have nothing else to do....


Ingredients

1 1/4 oz. creatine
6 tablespoons corn sugar
2/3 cup orange juice
4 envelopes Knox gelatin, softened in 1/4 cup water
6 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon orange food coloring
1/2 teaspoon orange extract
Confectioners sugar

Mix the corn sugar, creatine with orange juice, and corn syrup in a pan, and bring to a boil. Then, add the gelatin-water mixture, followed by the food coloring and orange extract. Pour into a 6 by 6 inch baking pan and let it cool for at least 6 hours. During the cooling process, you should score the candy to create 36 even sized squares. This will make it easier to break apart later. Afte completely cooled, break into squares and coate the outside with Confectioners sugar. You can also wrap the candy in wax paper to make it easier to carry with you. Each piece of candy contains 5 grams of creatine.

BUMP

[moveouttamyway]

Good post man Im going to try some of these things out for myself

[WhiteFire]

alright, glad to see im helping someone! lol thanks bro

[WhiteFire]

This recipe was my first and was mainly derived from recipes Ive found. So thanks to all for the ideasThis one is easy for a first timer and is as basic as it gets...

1 10oz bottle of Soy sauce
1 10oz bottle of Worchestershire
2 Tablespoons of Onion powder
2 Tablespoons of Garlic powder
2 Tablespoons of Morton's Hot Salt
2 Tablespoons of Black pepper
2 capfuls of liquid smoke
1 shot of southern comfort

This should be enough to handle 3 pounds of meat. I thinkusing a ziploc bag is the easiest and makes clean-up a breeze. The real kicker here is Mortons hot salt, it has cayenne pepper and red pepper mixed in already, and tastes pretty damn good too!

[Runnin12]

Mix 2 scoops of Raspberry Yogurt Protein Delite or other protein with
4 strawberries
15 blueberries
16 ounces of nonfat milk
1.2 cup of ice cubes.
It is so good that you should serve it with a little umbrella in it!

5. Add more or less fruit or other ingredients to suit your taste.
6. Don't forget to count the calories you are adding to each shake

[WhiteFire]

Anyone have anything that they wnat adddeD? if so, feel free to pm me and ill do my best to help out!!

[Sabbra Cadabra]

Hey man great post here. Gonna try sum out 2moro, specially the bar ones, great for at college and that. Great post!

Am always trying to get new reciepes plus not having much $ to spend on food is a prob but got all these ingredients. Good job!

[WhiteFire]

i figured id try adding some more. here you go!! cutting and bulking, generally low carb, they hav the carb value built in!!

Cottage Cheese Meatloaf

1 c cottage cheese
1 egg lightly beaten
1/4 c tomato paste
2 T. chopped onion
1 T Spicy Mustard
1/2 C Oats
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
1 lb lean ground beef or turkey or 1/2 beef 1/2 turkey
1/3 c grated Parmesan cheese
Spices of your choice

In a bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Add beef and mix well.
Press into an ungreased 8 inch square baking pan. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese; bake 10-15 minutes longer or until
meat is no longer pink. Drain; let stand 10 minutes before cutting.

**I usually cook mine for around an hour. I think I use more than 1lb of meat-I just use a reg size pack. I also use a med sized onion, and various spices. You can really adjust the recipe to your tastes


Protein Bars 1
Here's my favourite recipe for these:

7 scoops of Designer Protein (GNC)
1/2 cup melted butter
4 oz. cream cheese
1/2 cup walnuts
1/4 cup Splenda (or whatever amount you like according to your taste)

I have used chocolate, vanilla and strawberry protein powder.. With the strawberry I like to add a little unsweetened coconut.

Soft the butter and cream cheese together...and mix. Add in the protein powder, and Splenda....stir in your nuts, sunflower seeds, coconut or whatever else you're using. The batter will be pretty stiff. Spread a pan (I use a bread pan), press in mixture. If necessary spray your hands.

Chill in the frig and then cut into bars. I sometimes sort them individually frozen in a zip-loc bag, and then I can just grab one to take to work.

Play with these ingredients and I'm sure you'll come up with something you really like. Pretty simple...taste better than any of the bars I've tried...and a lot cheaper.



Homemade Low-Carb Chocolate Bars

These are quite rich and creamy chocolate bars that melt in your mouth. No glycerine or maltitol, not hidden carbs.

Ingredients:




1 square bakers unsweetened chocolate

3 tbsp whey protein

3 tbsp soy protein

1 tbsp psyllium husks

1 tbsp unsweetened coconut or almond meal

1 tbsp SugarTwin brown sugar

1 tbsp Splenda

5 drops Stevia

1/4 cup whipping cream

1 tbsp peanut butter

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp mint extract (optional)

1/4 cup crushed pecans (optional)

In a microwave-safe plastic dish, microwave the chocolate square for 1 minute on high. It should almost melted or half-way through. Add peanut butter on top and microwave for 1 minute on high. Add cream and microwave for 1.5 minutes on high (make sure the cream starts boiling, it has to be hot, or the bars will become powdery).

Sprinkle the psyllium husks first on the hot mixture, this helps solidify the bars. Add the rest of the ingredients on top. Use a hand mixer to mix the entire mixture until uniform. This will be a hard mixture and may get stuck inside the mixers, just sccop it up with a spoon.

Use a square none-stick plastic plate (I use the top of a ziplioc disposable cover), about 5x5 inches, but any non-stick surface should do. Spread the mixture on top of it, and press with the bottom of a spoon to make it evenly spread.

Freeze for an hour, and then place in the fridge until ready to use. I cut it into 4 bars.

Note: If you don't have all the above sweeteners, use any sweetener you have to taste. Mixing different sweeteners intensifies the sweetening effect, and requires a lesser amount of the sweetner.

Protein Bars 2

1 square unsweetened baker's chocolate
2 Tbls. butter
2 Tbls. heavy cream
3 pkts Equal (I used Splenda)
3 scoops (1 cup) Chocolate Designer Protein (or any other chocolate whey protein)
1 cup chopped peanuts (I used 1 1/4 cup chopped pecans)
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut
2 Tbls. Sugar Free Torani Syrup or maple syrup (or water, in a pinch...) --I used the maple syrup, as that, our market had!

Melt choc and butter in mike 1 min; stir until completely melted. Add Equal and heavy cream and stir til creamy. Add protein powder, peanuts, coconut and stir till mixed pretty well, add syrup (or water), and mix thoroughly(you may have to knead with your handsat this point, as mixture will be very stiff). Line a bread loaf pan with plastic wrap and press in mixture firmly and evenly. Chill till firm. Cut into 6 bars. These were huge, so I made it into 9 bars.

Approx 5 carbs/15 grams protein per 1/6 recipe

Peanut Butter Protein Bars Ingredients:
2 tablespoons no-sugar peanut butter
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon liquid artificial sweetener
1/4 cup Splenda
1 scoop Vanilla Praline Designer Whey protein powder*

Melt peanut butter and butter in microwave or double boiler. Mix in the sweeteners thoroughly. Add protein powder and stir until it forms a ball. (You may need to use clean hands to aid in the thorough mixing.) Roll up in ball and knead a bit; then separate into even portions, shaping as desired. Refrigerate until firm.

Makes 4 bars. Approx 2 carbs per bar.

Note: It's best to use the "scoop" that comes with the package, but in case it's lost (or you use another brand), this is approx. 1/3 of a cup (I have made this measuring at 1/3 cup and it works fine!)
Nutty Fudge Bars Ingredients:
2 1/3 cups vanilla protein powder
1 oz square unsweetened chocolate
1/2 cup butter
4 oz cream cheese
1 oz chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon peanut butter
1/4 cup Splenda

Melt butter, cream cheese, peanut butter and chocolate in bowl in microwave and mix together very well. Add splenda and vanilla, mix well again. Now add walnuts and protein powder and mix. It will be difficult and messy to mix, you will have to use your hands near the end to knead it all together, squeezing so that the powder disolves into the mixture. Now place in a baking pan, flatten and refrigerate. (Using a rectangular casserole dish works great here.) When cooled and hardened, cut into 8 bars.

Makes 8 bars. Approx 3.2 carbs per bar.


Fudge Walnut Bars
Ingredients:
2 1/3 cups chocolate protein powder
1/2 cup butter
4 oz cream cheese
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/4 cup Splenda

Melt butter and cream cheese. Mix in designer protein and Splenda. This will be stiff and hard to stir (knead with clean hands if needed.) Add walnuts and mix again. Place in greased bread pan. (Sprinkle additional finely chopped walnuts on top if you like.) Cool. Cut into 8 servings.

Makes 8 bars. Approx 2.5 carbs per bar.

Pineapple Bars Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups soy protein isolate
3 Tablespoons whey protein
1 cup Splenda
1 1/2 Tablespoons liquid or granular lecithin *
1 1/2 Tablespoons glycerin
3/4 cup heavy cream
3 Tablespoons coconut or almond oil
1 Tablespoon sugarfree pineapple preserves
OR - 2 Tablespoons finely chopped unsweetened fresh pineapple
1/2 teaspoon pineapple extract

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Combine soy, whey and Splenda in a food processor. Add remaining ingredients. Pulse on high until a soft dough forms. Remove dough and knead by hand for twenty-ish strokes. Press into an 8x5-inch pan and bake at 350°F for 10 minutes. Remove from pan and cut into bars while still hot. Allow to cool and store in airtight container.

Makes 6 bars. Approx 3 carbs per bar.

* Lecithin - both granular and liquid can be found in most health food stores.

LEMON-BANANA-CRANBERRY BARS


3 scoops vanilla protein powder
3 tsp baking powder
8 tsp Splenda
4 eggs
1/4 cup of Flax Seed oil (or olive oil)
1/4 cup water
1 cup cranberries
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp lemon extract
2 tsp banana extract

Mix together dry ingredients.
In separate bowl mix together eggs, oil, and extracts & beat well.
Add to dry ingredients to second mixture, combining well.
Add water and cranberries. Should be a wet consistency like a cake mix.
Pour into pam-sprayed square cake pan.
Cook at 325 for 10-15 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Sometimes may take longer to cook, depending on type of protein powder used.
Cut into four squares. Each square has about 20 grams of protein, 4.13 grams of carbs.

FUDGEY-NUTTY BARS

2 and 1/3 cups vanilla protein powder
1 oz square unsweetened chocolate
1/2 cup butter
4 oz cream cheese
1 oz chopped almonds
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp peanut butter
1/4 cup Splenda

Melt butter, cream cheese, peanut butter and chocolate in bowl in microwave.
Mix together very well and then add splenda & vanilla, mixing well again.
Add walnuts and protein powder and mix. It will be difficult and messy to mix, you will have to use your hands near the end to knead it all together, squeezing so that the powder is incorporated into the mixture.
Now place in an 8x8 0r 9x9 baking pan, flatten and refrigerate.
When cooled and hardened, cut into 8 bars. Per bar: 21 grams protein, 3.15 carbs. (This will vary according to the protein powder you use, I use Optimum Nutrtion as I have found it to be the best and it has 22g protein and 1.5g carbs in each scoop, but no aspartame.)

[hunk10387]

i made one of the ones on the other post you made with just the protein bars on it. i stuck it in the fridge, and it isnt holding together atall lol. so today i stuck it in the oven for about 30 mins, and it still didnt go together lol, so its back in the fridge for a few hours, and if it doesnt stick, ill eat it as a cereal with milk

I tried to make one of your other bars today too, seems to be holding a little, but they are in the fridge right now.

perhaps i cant cook for **** lol

anyway, amazing thread, great idea and a big help to cash strapped teens.
