Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Bars These. Are. Amazing.
A healthy alternative (that doesn't taste healthy AT ALL) to your store-bought protein bar. Create these raw, vegan, bars and freeze them or keep them refrigerated for an on-the-go snack. These are GREAT for snacks for your kids, or you could even take a tray (cut small) to your next holiday or dinner party as a healthy dessert option!
