Notes
These protein bars are SO incredibly easy and delicious, you are going to wonder why you ever wasted money on overpriced store-bought bars that taste like chalk.
Tahini is a fantastic source of copper - a mineral that:
- supports iron absorption/prevents anemia
- supports ATP production (which reduces fatigue)
- boost collagen, protecting against osteoporosis and skin aging
