Peanut Butter Protein Bars

So, I said in the beginning this blog would be more than just an update about my life. I think I promise recipes and pictures and lots of goodies, but have been slacking. Obviously food is a big part of my life, I have been cooking like crazy out here, and trying to stay healthy! Lots of meal prepping and recipe finding! Here is a great recipe for homemade peanut butter protein bars. They are so easy, and may be the best thing I have ever eaten.

Ingredients:
16 oz peanut butter (any kind you like!)
2 C Whey Protein Powder (again, any kind. I used Jay Robb Vanilla)
1 1/4 C Honey
3 C Old Fashioned Oats
1/4 C Chia Seeds
1/4 C Hemp Seeds
(The seeds are optional, in mine I only used Chia because I didn't have Hemp, but both would be awesome!)

Directions:
Heat peanut butter in microwave for 90 seconds.
Stir in honey
Stir in seeds if you are using them
Stir in protein powder
Stir in oats

Mixture should be really thick, if it's too thick you can always add more peanut butter and/or honey.
Press into 9x13 pan.
Chill for at least two hours, then cut into small pieces.

Sometimes I'm not the best at making things. I literally mixed all the ingredients with my hands and flattened in the pan and stuck it in the fridge and they still turned out amazing. I think I'm addicted to them. I eat them a lot and the pan has lasted me almost a week. Also, they're a great substitute for when you're craving something sweet! Obviously, I am very proud of these, so you must try them!
