Hey Yael, can you give me some recipes? I have been trying to come up with a good paleo style meal replacement bar for a while now. So far i am including things like cashew butter, coconut flakes, dates, pumpkin pie spice, lemon / lime juice etc. Normally i would use flax or hempseed protien powder over whey, but i need measurements and baking times for ingredients...no bake recipes would be great too!
Let me test them out first (after I decide on a brand of whey) and then I'll send you the good ones.

They are post workout bars, hence the whey.
Mmm, cashew butter.
Yael, do you do well with cashew butter? I dont do any cashews. I have been making my own nut butters. My best and most recent concoction is 1 c pecans, 1 c walnuts and 1/3 c ground flax seeds. Blend it all in food processor, scrape and reblend. Yum! Optional: add pinch salt and/or pumpkin pie spice!
If you want a goat's milk protein you could try this. It is from free range goats and is a combo of casein and whey. Unlike regular whey, I don't get any mucus or other digestive issues form this. Some people may find the taste too strong because of the "goaty" taste.
I do well with cashews and even better with almonds, but I don't do a lot of nut butters because I don't have any bread to put them on. I occassionally get a jar at TJ's to dip carrot sticks into.
I don't do well with goat milk for some reason. I only drink grassfed milk. Not sure what I'll do with whey yet--I'm researching and looking at options.
My local health food store saves me grassfed eggs whenever they come in... $1.99 for a dozen!
