    This looks awesome! But I don’t have chocolate whey protein. Anyway… It’ll be banana strawberry peanut bar. 😁
    Zu, could you take a photo of ingredients you use and maybe intermediate photos while you are cooking? It’ll be very useful to check how it has to look in any steps. 😊

      I understand, but I barely find the time to come up with and post new recipes. It would be really time consuming. Maybe one day when I can afford to hire someone to get some of the workload off my shoulders 🙂

        You need hide cameras in your kitchen. ☺
        And they will transmit online. 👆An idea! Open periscope when you cook. 🙂

        Hi i wish i can help you but i live to far(uk) maybe someone as internship i bet there is someone that can learn thing or two, i think if you just take pick of your ingredience will be enough becouse you do give as step by step prep.
        I just make it, how many bars did you make from this one recipe? Will eat it tomorrow my eating window is close (IF)
        Thank you

    Just made it! Licked the spoon and takes great! 🙂 Made with almond butter though as I didn’t have peanut butter. The final product didn’t really have much flavor when using almond butter. I think peanut butter would definitely be better.

    How many bars does that recipe yield? Just one?

      That depends on your own daily food intake and caloric need. I use this bar just as a snack so I’d normally have just a half. If I wanted to replace a whole meal with this bar, I would eat the whole thing.

    looks delicious! Chocolate and peanut butter are my favorite. will almond meal also work? I’m making my own almond milk, so have lots of almond meal left over…
