You always post such good recipes, but I never have the time or baking talent to make them. Maybe I can just hire you as my protein bar maker!

Mercy sakes girl I don't know if you are good or bad for us. he-he Way too many good recipes. Although good for us (if you eat a serving) sometimes I can't just have one. UUUUUGGGGG Love ya anyways =) Mini me

Wowee...this sounds great! I had printed out several carrot cake muffin recipes from Sparkpeople but none of them were protein muffins...this is superior! Only one thing, I don't like pineapple in carrot cake so I'll recalculate it with maybe an extra 1/3 cup of carrots or applesauce instead of it. Thank you so much for passing along these great protein recipes, it is so nice to bake something that feels like a treat for me but knowing it is healthy makes it so much more enjoyable.
