Not too long ago, I stopped buying bags of mixed frozen fruit and began buying and cutting up fresh fruit, portioning it out into small single serving bags and then putting them into big freezer bags so they would be frozen and already-portioned out for my morning protein shake using Purely Inspired protein mix. The results have been exactly what I had hoped – my protein shakes taste so much better and at the same time I know I’m saving money!
Since strawberries happen to be on sale this week, I thought it would be a great time to do a recipe using strawberries and Purely Inspired strawberry protein powder. I had seen this recipe on the internet sometime ago and I jotted it down for a future post. I relied on those notes to put this together and thankfully, these protein bars are easy to make.
These protein bars combine fresh strawberries with Purely Inspired strawberry protein powder to provide you with an explosion of flavor and texture too! They are best served cold, so be sure to keep them refrigerated once they are prepared. You’ll love them ice cold after a hard workout!
Purely Inspired Strawberry Protein Bars 2015-07-29 18:11:44 
- 3 big fresh strawberries
- 1/4 cup of Purely Inspired strawberry protein mix
- 3 tbsp coconut flour
- 1/4 milk (almond or regular)
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 4 squares of dark chocolate (40g)
- 2 fresh strawberries, sliced in half
- Blend everything together using a food processor or handheld blender.
- Shape the dough into bars.
- Melt 4 big squares of dark chocolate (40g) and dip the bars into the melted chocolate.
- Place dipped bars on tray or plate but be sure to line with aluminum foil.
- Add half a strawberry on top of each bar.
- Stick the tray or plate in the refrigerator for a couple of hours.
- Note: If you aren’t trying to watch calories and you want something with a little more pizzazz, try using cream instead of milk to bind your batter. You will be in flavor paradise.
Lucky for me (and you), Purely Inspired protein mix comes in chocolate, strawberry and vanilla, so I will continue to try various recipes I create and/or find on the internet and if they taste halfway decent, I will share them with you!
