I really like Atkins bars (even though I'm always kind of embarrassed for people to see me w/ an Atkins bar - I don't know why....). </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Anyway, they always fill me up & never seem to make my blood sugar spike. I have to admit, I was a little shoked at how small this bar was but it's only 130 cals w/ 5g of protein. Normally, I'd like more protein but this was a good snack for breakfast along w/ my greek yogurt. Sometimes I just need a little sweet splurge (yes, this is a splurge for me). </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The taste was really good & it was nice and doughy - not too dry. I probably wouldn't eat it on it's own - probably not enough protein to fill me up - but it's a good option for when I just need a little extra more.</div><br />

</div>1. Adjust oven rack to middle position; heat oven to 375 degrees. Spread oats evenly on baking sheet and toast in oven until fragrant and lightly browned, 7 to 9 minutes; cool on wire rack. Increase oven temperature to 450 degrees. Line second baking sheet with parchment paper. <br />
<br />
2. Remove 1 tablespoon of yogurt to small bowl and reserve for glazing. Whisk remaining yogurt and chia in large measuring cup until incorporated.<br />
<br />
3. Pulse flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt in food processor until combined, about four 1-second pulses. Scatter cold coconut oil evenly over dry ingredients and pulse until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal, twelve to fourteen 1-second pulses. Transfer mixture to medium bowl; stir in cooled oats. Using rubber spatula, fold in liquid ingredients until large clumps form. Mix dough by hand in bowl until dough forms cohesive mass.<br />
<br />
4. Scoop dough onto prepared baking sheet. Brush surfaces with reserved yogurt and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes; cool scones on baking sheet on wire rack 5 minutes, then remove scones to cooling rack and cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Serve.<br />
<br />
The coconut oil added a nice tropical flavor. I think these would be great w/ diced, candied ginger (I'm talking to you <a href="http://hungryhungryhippie.com/">ginger-loving, hungry hippie!</a>) and some macadamia nuts.<br />

I picked up the Dark Chocolate Coconut Fruit & Grain Bar because it was pretty low cal with a decent amount of protein ... and seriously, chocolate & coconut - you can't go wrong. Well, it's great! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I used the layer-by-layer eating approach & started w/ the toppings, nibbled off the chocolate, & munched down on the granola base. Every layer tasted great & totally satisfied my craving! I'm definitely going to buy another box of these when this runs out. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I still rely on my homemade protein cakes for my on-the-go convenience foods but bars like these ease my chocolate cravings and give me a daily sweet. I don't have a huge sweet tooth and i don't add sweeteners to my recipes but it's nice to have one or two sweet things a day.

Bars - Chocolate TurtleThese bars are one of my favorites! If I'm going to eat a bar that is a bit higher in calories, it has to satisfy a few things: (1) be delicious, (2) take a while to eat so that I'm not done in 2 minutes having snarfed 200 cals, (3) be high in protein, and (4) keep me full. <br />
Yes, I'm high maintenance.<br />

They've got 3 layers & I eat them sequentially: crispies on the outside, chocolate layer of love, & chewy caramel center! I love that it takes me so long to eat it - definitely adds to the psychologically satiating aspect of a calorically dense bar! Stats are great, too, with plenty of protein & fiber to keep you full. <br />
Check out more info @ their website but don't buy these bars if you see them at the grocery store ... more for me! :)<br />

<br />
1.5 cups of cold water<br />
1-2 pkts of cherry water flavoring (i use the generic brand of crystal light cause i'm cheap like that)<br />
1/4 -1/2 tsp guar gum<br />
1/4-1/2 tsp xantham gum<br />
10-15 ice cubes <br />
<br />
i blend the water & flavorings first to get them mixed<br />
then i gradually add the ice a little at a time<br />
then i blend the shit out of it on high in my vitamix<br />
throw it in a bowl and let it chill out a bit in the freezer<br />

Also, I am in desperate need of <strike>procrastination</strike> a break from studying Nutrient Metabolism. I do totally geek out on Food Science and Nutrition but studying for a midterm kind of takes the fun out of it! <br />
<br />
Sooooo.... I'm a grad student getting my masters in Food Science & Nutrition. I'm really into fitness and eating healthy but have struggled w/ obsession in both of those realms. Recently I've gotten my emotional turmoil in check and it has allowed me to be more relaxed in my physical state. (I don't need to control exercise and eating as much when I feel more in control of my life.) I've gained most of the weight back so now I'm in a healthy range and I've started lifting weights to add some muscle. I've really decided to focus on becoming strong. It really helps me when I have a goal in mind so that there's a reason to get off the treadmill and to not skip meals! I've upped my protein intake by a ton and I've found that I feel much better throughout the day. No lulls and drags and I'm getting in control of my emotional eating.<br />
<br />
I guess that's it, for now. Feel free to ask me any questions & please introduce yourself! I'd love to get to know anyone out there in the wide blogosphere! :)tea-baghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03092101604395592079noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-153726746221055474.post-85914179445208572662011-04-22T17:34:00.000-07:002011-04-22T17:34:31.186-07:00Foods of April's Low Carb Protein Bar<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray standard muffin tin with nonstick vegetable cooking spray.<br />
<br />
2. Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and coconut flakes in medium bowl until combined. <br />
<br />
3. Grind chia seeds to a fine powder and mix with 1/4 cup of water. Set aside for 10-15 minutes while it forms a gel. </span></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; line-height: 115%;"><span lang="EN" style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN;"><br />
4. Microwave or lightly heat coconut oil until liquid - about 45-60 seconds.<br />
<br />
4. Combine chia gel and sugar and whisk vigorously until thick and homogenous, about 30 seconds; add melted coconut oil in 2 or 3 steps, whisking to combine after each addition. Add vegan yogurt in 2 steps, whisking just to combine.<br />
<br />
5. Add frozen mangos (chopped to the size of blueberries) to dry ingredients and gently toss to combine. Add wet ingredients and fold with rubber spatula until batter comes together and fruit is evenly distributed, 25 to 30 seconds (small spots of flour may remain and batter will be thick). Do not overmix.<br />
<br />
6. Use (greased) ice cream scoop or large spoon to drop batter into greased muffin tin.</span></div><div style="line-height: 115%;"><span lang="EN" style="font-size: 13pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN;"><br />
7. Bake until light golden brown and toothpick or skewer inserted into center of muffin comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes, rotating pan from front to back halfway through baking time. Invert muffins onto wire rack, stand muffins upright, and cool 5 minutes. Serve as is or use one of the sugar-topped variations.</span></div>tea-baghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03092101604395592079noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-153726746221055474.post-69460624301020358292011-04-14T09:51:00.000-07:002011-04-14T09:51:41.955-07:00High Protein Cookie Dough Whip<div class="module ingredients"><h2 class="header_2"><span>Ingredients</span></h2><ul class="bullet_3"><li class="ingredient">12 oz <a href="http://www.livestrong.com/thedailyplate/nutrition-calories/food/mori-nu/silken-lite-tofu/"><span style="color: #147ecb;">Silken Lite Tofu</span></a> </li>
