Birthday Protein Bites {Fun Granola Bars}

by kris on February 8, 2013 in Desserts, Recipes, Snacks

Happy Friday! It’s also a happy day because today I celebrate the big, beautiful 32!

Late yesterday I got my last workout in at 31 years old so I could come home and make treats!

I was in and out of that gym in 30 minutes, rocked shoulders and abs while listening to Swedish House Mafia and thinking what healthy treat I could make for today…

You know me, I can’t do the sugary goodies, I needed to keep it clean and lean ;)

Birthday Protein Bites:

1/2 cup oats

1/3 cup vanilla protein powder {I used Vi Shape Shake Mix}

2 tbsp almond butter or peanut butter

1/4 tsp vanilla

3 tbsp almond milk

1 tbsp honey

sundrops & dark chocolate

To Make Birthday Protein Bites: Mix dry ingredient together and mix the wet together.

Add the wet to the dry and combine well.

Add to a coconut oiled loaf pan or in my case, I used a glass tupperwear thingy…

Cut into squares and top with chocolate

Freeze for 30 minutes before serving.

Serve for a birthday girl or boy and always keep a fresh cup of coffee next to the plate.

Speaking of coffee, I’m off to make some now and dive into this amazing day!  I have a few calls for business to take care of and some work on the new site for my other brand, then I think Ryan is taking me out….I have no idea where, but I love a good surprise!  We’re having the family dinner tomorrow evening at one of my favorite seafood restaurants, SandBar!  YUM!

Have a great weekend, doll!

To Your Glam Life,

xxoo

    Happy Birthday Kris! I don’t have protein powder. Do you have any suggestions I can replace it with? Oat flour maybe?
