Vegan Protein Bars

Mike's Mix Recipes Leave a comment   , , , ,

This recipe was inspired by a good friend who follows a vegan diet. She was, and is, always looking for ways to vary and increase her protein intake. The result is an easy, delicious, non-time consuming, nutrient rich recipe (whew!) that could fit her vegan needs and be happily consumed by my children (who can be very picky eaters).

With any recipe, I look for one that provides a small margin for error. If there are multiple steps, I am bound to mess it up. This recipe fit my needs perfectly in that it simply consisted of putting ingredients in a bowl, mixing, then transferring to a pan.

Appropriate credit should be given to Purely Twins, the inspiration for my creation. Visit their site and take a look at the many wonderful and creative vegan recipes they have compiled.

Give these vegan bars a try and let me know what you think. I have since made a number of different variations, altering the amount of flax and chia seeds (I eliminated the flax and doubled the chia seeds for one batch) and adding chocolate chips to name a few. If you tried the recipe and made alterations, what were they? What did you like/dislike? I’d love to hear from you!

Easy and delicious way to get protein on the go. Even better, this recipe can fit the most restricted dietary needs. Vegan, gluten and diary free, there are many substitutions that can be made to fit your tastes. My initial attempt at this recipe was with honey and dried cherries and it was great! They cool nicely and travel well. I was able to get the kids to eat this as well by substituting chocolate chips for the fruit.
