HEALTHY PROTEIN CHOCOLATE BARS

It’s Wednesday and I needed a quick and healthy snack for today so yesterday I made these healthy raw vegan protein bars in only 10 minutes!

These healthy raw protein bars are very easy and quick to make! You can make them thicker if you prefer otherwise they will brake easily.

They’re gluten free, refined sugar free, dairy free, paleo and vegan! Wohoo!
All the ingredients are healthy except for the white chocolate chips… I know, I can’t help it to use white chocolate chips sometimes…!! But feel free to use dark chocolate chips instead to make them with less sugar content.

DIABETIC DIET TIP

These protein bars are the perfect snack AS LONG AS your sugar levels are stable or about to start going down (80 mg/dL and going down!). The reason is, these protein bars have a small amount of white chocolate, small but is still white chocolate!

Therefore, always remember that in a high sugar situation, do not consume sweets that contain ingredients that might prevent to stabilize your blood sugar.

1/3 cup or 25gr of cacao powder 100%
