NEW RECIPE - High Protein Strawberry Fudge Bars...

That St Ivel butter is on the shopping list mate and these are this weekends must do

Where do you get your quark form?

Normally shop at Morrisions, but can never seem to find the stuff. Where abouts is it located? Around the cheeses and stuff I'm guessing right?

Hi mate.

Quark from Tescos or Morrisons.

Usually at Morrisons its near the cottage cheese mate.

At tescos it tends to be hid away, not near the cottage cheese but near the end of the shelf with the solid cheeses.

Get the St Ivel lowest fat stuff mate.

I like this Bar stuff and would like to give it a try. I am in the USA and don't know where to fnd Quark. I asked the guy in the Daiy section and he said he had no idea what I was talking about. DO you guys know any supermarkets in USA that would have quark. Also, when you say 2 packets of Strawberry jelly, how big are this packets. I ususly buy 1 qt container of strawberry jelly. Thanks guys.

Hmm you could maybe use cream cheese i think you can get this in the USA and its highish in protein, lowish carbs, hardly any fat.

Sugar Free Jelly over here comes in sachets.

I stayed in all weekend so i had the money to order more whey today which should be arriving shortly (how long does MP normally take? And this will be among my first experiments with it, it better be worth it Gaz! I'll post up my results

I made mine yesterday and am defo impressed. I have not ate a whole one but I did eat the left over bit in the tray lol!!!!! I will be eating my first one today and carnt wait lol!!!!

I did not use the St Ival Gold though, I used the low fat olive oil spread so hopefully will not make too much difference to macro breakdown??? I was also wondering why you use 2 sachets of jelly. Did you try with one and decide not enough flavour??? Just curious cause I may give it a go, I think I will make some blackberry ones this weekend as well lol!!!!!!!!

So gaz do you think these are better than the wiffers bars for cutting as lower in carbs???

If you're after low carbs then yes, but then again, you can remove the oats from mine and carbs are super low ... or add oats to Gaz's and get higher carbs.

I think both recipies are similar, and flexible, so you can mix and match and adjust ingredients to get the ratios you want

Cheers dude makes sense to me. I may mix and match in a few weeks time to see what yours would taste like with out the oats.

Sugar Free Jelly over here comes in sachets.

DO you know approx. how many grams in a sachet. Thanks. I will make it today once I know how many grams we are talking about. Also, do you know if Cottage cheese may work insteadof Quark or Cream cheese. Thanks mate.

I think its 14grams of jelly powder per sachet mate if that helps.

Cottage cheese instead of Quark or Cream cheese is fine yes.

I'm going to have these bars for 11's will they be ok on a cutting diet, I will try and eat only one LOL

They are excellent for cutting in my opinion, especially if low carbing and increasing fats.

Thats why i have come up with them, something with high protein, moderate fats and low carbs.

And as we speak ive just finished making my second batch to take away with me this weekend when i will struggle to eat well.

I am using for my cut at the moment and they help keep things sane.

Gaz I made 2 more batches over the weekend mate, 1 with blackcurrant, which tastes good but not as strong as the orange and strawberry ones. (Remember I only use 1 sachet of jelly) So I made a second batch with my other packet of blackcurrant jelly and added in a strawberry one too. Tastes real good!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What Exactly Is Quark And I Can Get It At A Basic Food Market?
BtW, These Bars Look Amazing. Gonna Try And Get Some Quark After I Find Out What Exactly It Is.

just made my first batch of these, there currently setting in the fridge although they were setting fast anyway.

just tasted a bit of the mixture in the bowl! yum, yum!

i couldn't find the lowest fat st ivel gold spread but got the normal low fat one but thats only 35g fat per 100g so my bars will have about 3g of extra fat in them, thats all.

i also used 100g cottage cheese instead of quark.

looking forward to these

just had a great right arm workout mixing it.

how much would it change the flavour of these to use vanilla protein in place of unflavoured?

My recipe thread :)

Dodgy Dave's VLCD Nightmare :P

ORIGINAL: OoOGazOoO

Ok guys i have just made this and i have to say, they are amazingly good.

Easy to make, a nice arm workout to mix, and they set really quickly and they taste superb.

They are really chewy and just taste amazing.

Ingredients -

100 grams of Quark
50 grams of Whole Earth Peanut Butter
50 grams of Almonds
115 grams of St Ivel Gold lowest fat spread
2 packets of Sugar Free Strawberry Jelly
150 grams of whey protein.


Measure the st ivel gold spread, the peanut butter and the quark, then put this in the microwave until they melt nicely. Once out of the microwave, give them a bit of a stir so that they are slightly runny, should be a fairly thick consistency but dont worry.

Place sugar free jelly in bottom of the bowl, chop up your almonds so these two are the first things at the bottom of the bowl.

Then measure the whey, add SOME of the PB Butter and Quark into a bowl then add SOME whey, stir in. Then add the rest of the PB, Butter and Quark then add the rest of the whey and mix in.

Mix this with a wooden spoon.

Put in a tray or bowl in fridge to set and you should get the following (pics to come).

This makes 8 bars in total!!!

Nutrtional breakdown per 1 bar -

Protein - 19.8 grams
Carbs - 3.3 grams
Fats - 8.5 grams.

hey mate, i know im going to sound really thick, but where do you add in the water (if any), and the jelly?

unfortunately i think i need the "idiots guide to making OoOGazOoO's protein bars".lol.

cheers for anyhelp anyone.

Hi mate, no problem.

No water at all buddy.

1) Empty 2 sachets of sugar free strawberry jelly powder into the mixing bowl (i.e. just the bowl where you mix everything together).

2) In a separate bowl, weigh out the whey and then add to the above strawberry jelly.

3) Weigh the Quark, Peanut butter and St Ivel gold in one smaller dish or bowl and microwave until runny (normally on highest heat in micorwave for around 2-3 mins).

4) Once out of the microwave just stir the above Quark, Peanut butter and St Ivel gold to check no lumps are still there.

5) Add the Quark, Peanut butter and St Ivel gold into the same bowl as the sugar free jelly and the whey.

6) Stir the mix altogether.

7) Dispense into a tray or bowl and then place in fridge to set.

As for the almonds, what i tend to do is break them up or blend them up before i start and then just add them at step 1) with the sugar free jelly.

Hope this helps.

Just had some more this morning, they still taste amazing.

Should turn out well, if you do make the chocolate orange ones let me know how you get on please buddy, sounds nice.

wow!

gets well hard to mix it. starts setting straight away. i dont think it'll make 8 bars though for me to be honest. probably only four i reckon, in order for it to satisfy my appetite anyway. doesnt matter though.

really smells chocolate orangey. had a tiny taste of the mix but it had started setting so didnt get a real insight, but seemed quite nice. the real test will be later.

its in the fridge setting as we speak. will check it in a few hours, should be fine by then i reckon. my sis is into this stuff too and shes coming round later so ill get her to try some, and of course the mrs.lol

Nice one mate.

Yeh thats the good thing about it, sets really quick, but if you dont get in there and mix it a.s.a.p. then it can get a bit messy.

Just a tip for people in future.

I did leave it a little too long when stirring before and went unmixable really, but i just stuck 1 egg white into the mix and then carried on, which then made it easier to stir and mix and also upped the protein count too.

Methods of training article - [link=http://www.muscletalk.co.uk/article-methods-of-training.aspx]

yeah, thats a good idea, at one point i was considering putting some milk in as it got so tough, but i just carried on, coz like you said, was worried it would set even more.

just checked it in the fridge, and its solid. consistency seems perfect. will wait till family get here then try it out.

what do you reckon mate, do you think im being well greedy saying that i think it only looks like 4 servings?

i guess i could just weight the total and split it into sizes similar to what you would get a bar in (80-100g). only problem is a bar such as that doesnt always fill me. although saying that, it might turn out to be really satisfying.

Life's full of challenges. Give each your all & you can always hold your head high with pride.

Hmm well what i normally do mate is make 8 bars but eat 2 at once, so that's 4 bars in total if you get me, 4 total servings.

If you have used the amounts above i would make 4 bars personally as that's what i do with those amounts as above.

Yes they should be set now, they will be nice mate, can you take a photo? ? ?
