Oh my goodness. This find is a FIND a tell you. I ALWAYS have people asking me for new ideas to help them in getting their protein in. The problem most individuals find with protein is that it often takes time to cook and prepare meat, eggs, or even shakes. I am super picky about the bars that I will recommend to people because a lot of them might as well be candybars. It seems that most bars that taste good have upwards of 15-20 grams of sugar. Those bars that don’t have any sugar in them, and have an adequate amount of protein in them are usually high in calories and quite often taste like dirt, or protein powder…both of which make me want to hurl. In eating paleo I have become far more fond of REAL foods, and the processed goods don’t appeal to me so much. WELL…these bars are an AWESOME solution. They are clean. They are high in protein, and they taste good. WHAT? Yep. It’s true. In introduce you to the deliciousness of Quest Bars.
The fabulous people at Quest Nutrition sent me a plethora of their bars to sample, and really am SO impressed with them. The flavors that they have are: Chocolate Brownie, Vanilla Almond Crunch, Peanut Butter Supreme, Apple Pie, Mixed Berry Bliss, PB&J, Banana Nut Muffin, Chocolate Peanut Butter, Cinnamon Roll, Coconut Cashew, Strawberry Cheesecake, Lemon Cream Pie, & Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. With that many flavors to choose from you are BOUND to find one that suits your fancy. I would have to say my favorites were the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Coconut Cashew, Peanut Butter Supreme & Banana Nut Muffin. Although, I was surprised at how much I liked the PB&J, and the Cinnamon Roll. There weren’t any that I hated, which I think says a lot.
I am a big texture person, and I like the texture. They are chewy, but they still have some bits of nuts and fruit in them, which I think gives them some substance. With such great taste, it makes me love the incredible stats even MORE. Here is the nutrition information from the Coconut Cashew flavor. I got this info from their website HERE.
170 calories, 20 grams of protein, 17 grams of fiber, 6 grams of fat, and 2 grams of sugar. HELLO. Unreal. I am all about clean ingredients. Quest Bars use whey and a milk protein base, so their is no soy which I was a fan of. They do not add any sugars, and there are no artificial sweeteners. They use stevia and the fiber in the bars is derived from a plant base, which is excellent as well. They are also gluten free which is AWESOME. AND, as if the bars weren’t enough. Quest also has their own version of peanut butter cups which are awesome. 
They also contain protein which allows you to have a great treat without feeling guilty about it. If you can’t tell I am a fan of this product. I have already recommended them to a lot of my clients, and have had the same responses from them. They like them a lot! Well done Quest Nutrition. I’m a huge fan! Try them. You won’t be disappointed. For more info on these awesome bars check their website HERE.
Not only is this recipe delicious and super healthy, but it is EASY. Yaaay, all the way around!
