For all of you die-hard nutritionalists — or just for all those who want to eat cleanly, here’s my recipe for Halloween Brownie Protein Bars.
Recipe:
1 3/4 cups Egg White protein powder — I use Jay Robb
1-4 cup Rice Protein Powder — organic if possible
2 Tblsp. edible vegetable glycerin — or maple syrup if you can’t find the vegetable glycerin at your health food store
7-8 teasp. pure stevia — get at a health food store
3 tblsp. cocoa powder — organic if possible
4 tblsp. butter
5 – 6 tblsp. coconut oil — get at a health food store, please — the kind you find in most grocery stores is not a good source
If too gooey, add more protein powder. Pat flat and cut into pumpkin shapes, adding pecans as decoration.
Okay, it’s not like this is as good as a cookie, but it’s healthy — gives you the protein the body so needs and tastes better than any other protein bar out there on the market. HAVE FUN!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

They sound good.
Karen, I’m really intrigued on how these would taste!
Thanks for posting something a little different!
i used Stevia extract as a sugar substitute because i am diabetic. Stevia is really sweeter than sucrose.*,’
the thing i like about stevia is that it is tooth friendly”:,
the great thing about stevia is that it is also tooth friendly like xylitol sweeteners;~~
right on our supermarket, i can buy some cheap protein bars which i always consume when doing workouts `”,
