Does anyone have any recommendations for low calorie protein bars? You can get ~30g of protein for ~150 calories in any number of protein drinks - about 5 calories per gram of protein - but most of the protein bars I see are over 10 calories per gram protein and I'm trying to shave every calorie I can...
The shakes taste ok when (very) cold, but I'm looking for something a bit more palatable at room temperature that I can stuff in the glove box or take with me in my pack on longer excursions. My go to right now is jerky (4-7 calories/ gram of protein), but I'd like to avoid the extra sodium and hopefully get some fiber to go with it...
So far the three that I'm leaning towards trying are:
$2.08 Julian Bakery Paleo Thin with 20g protein in 150 calories (7.5 calories/g protein) and a monstrous 24g fiber with 230mg sodium
$2.10 Built Bar Coconut Chocolate Crème with 17g protein in 130 calories (7.6 calories/g protein) but "only" 6g fiber with 45mg sodium
$1.79 Quest Chocolate Brownie with 20g protein in 180 calories (9 calories/g protein) and 17g fiber with 230mg sodium
Alternatively, does anyone have any good recipes for making your own?
