Yum!

I made Jamie's Eason's Pumpkin Protein Bars today! I have been diligently trying to eat every 2-3 hours each day and was on the hunt for some quick grab & go snacks. Not a big fan of packaged bars and constantly sifting through the shelves for some without hydrogenated fats, I decided to take things into my own hands and head to the kitchen! These were delish, moist and quick!  So simple to toss 1 or 2 in a ziploc bag and hop in the car! The whole house smelled insane, too.  Let me know if you try this recipe!

My only departure from Jamie's recipe was that I couldn't find the Xylitol Brown Sugar Blend at the health food store I was in, so I created my own blend of Stevia, Xylitol, natural molasses sugar and a bit of organic brown sugar which all added up to the same 1/2 cup measurement. Check out the great calorie total per bar ( I'm eating 2 per snack) and tell me you won't love this winter morning protein treat! Wait till you taste my next post about a great coffee drink I made - perfect for the holidays!  enjoy*
