My girlfriend Raya has the gift of cooking and baking. Seriously, this girl can whip up dinners and baked goods without even referencing a recipe. Lucky for us, she has created this unreal homemade protein bar and decided to share the recipe – this is easy to make, delicious and it’s high in protein and healthy fats. For those of you that like Daryl’s bars….try these instead!
