Recipe of the Week: Protein Pudding Bars

I’m not a fan of most store-bought protein bars, but love homemade ones.

This is a simple, tasty recipe from my cookbook, The Shredded Chef.  What I like to do is leave the bars in the baking dish and keep the dish in the fridge at the office, and then portion them out as needed.
