| I couldn't resist |
The recipe called for 2-C- peanut butter, 1 3/4 -C- honey, 1-C- oats and 2 1/4 vanilla protein powder.
I didn't have vanilla protein, but I did have chocolate flavored protein powder. So, that is just what I used. I thought maybe by using chocolate flavor It might taste like a peanut butter cup. Couldn't wait to see how it came out.

OMG! It was better than a peanut butter cup. Talk about good they are so yummy. They literally tasted like a No Bake Cookie to me, which happens to be one of my faves. I don't eat a lot of No Bake Cookies anymore, because I can't just stop at one. When I took my first bite, I thought I was in heaven. Do you know how long it has been since I have had a No Bake Cookie? One heck of a long time. I ate one and that was enough to satisfy me. They are YUMMY.
Here is the link to Jess at Blonde Ponytail for the Peanut Butter Protein Bars recipe.HERE
Tomorrow is the DAM TO DAM 20k. I went to the Dam to Dam expo. I was surprised that their were not more vendors there. They did serve food though. They had sub sandwiches, assortment of chips, assortment of cookies, peanuts, m&m's. I have never been to a expo were they served food. It was great.
The shirts this year are tye dye cotton shirts. Check them out.
Of course I got the pink. I was lucky and they still had my size, but some of the other colors were running out of different sizes. Ya, baby I got my PINK.
Are you running a race this weekend?
Have you made Protein Bars before?
Those look great and no bake cookies are absolutely my favorite thing on the planet. I can seriously eat them til I get sick....not good.

I made some that I found on Cara @ Eat Pray Run's blog...they were super delicious! Except I put a banana in them and then did not eat them quick enough...I went back to have one later and it did not taste so great. haha! Homemade protein bars are the way to go though!!
