Primal Protein Bars

My friend Courtney requested that we create a primal protein bar, so here it is! This recipe contains peanut butter and whey protein therefore they are not considered paleo. They are tasty and great for a quick snack before or after a workout.

1 cup organic natural smooth peanut butter
1 cup Iso Whey Protein powder
1 cup water
2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
3/4 cup almond meal
1/2 cup ground flax seeds

Combine all ingredients (I used my kitchen aid mixer) and spread evenly onto a parchment lined cookie sheet. Place in fridge for 30 minutes then cut into pieces (20 bars). These are chewy and do best when kept in the fridge.
