Protein Bars

1/2 c. butter
1 c. peanut butter
12 oz. carob (cho****hips
1 c. wheat germ
1 c. shredded coconut
1 c. your choice of nuts, chopped
1/2 c. sesame seeds
1/2 c. sunflower seeds

In saucepan, melt butter, peanut butter and chips over low heat. Mix remaining ingredients in a bowl. Pour carob mixture over dry ingredients and mix well. Pour in greased 9 x 13 inch cake pan. Chill in refrigerator.

These suckers have almost 10g of protein per bar.

Carob chips...

Small chips of carob similar in shape and size to "chocolate chips". Carob contains no chocolate but is produced from the carob plant. Use in any recipe calling for chocolate chips or "chocolate pieces".

Ooh, yummy!  Thanks for sharing!  I've been having a rough time with store-bought protein bars, so will definitely be trying these out.

How many bars do you get out of the pan? I was just wondering so I can get the right amount of bars so they are 10 grams of protein.

                    It's not what you gather, but what you scatter 
                        that tells what kind of life you have lived.
