These were in an article that came across my news feed on facebook from bicycling.com. I haven't tried them yet but am planning on it.
Mounds of Joy

Cherry Almond Bar
Ingredients:
5 scoops vanilla protein powder
½ cup egg beaters
½ cup almond meal
¼ cup sliced almonds
1 ½ cups frozen dark sweet cherries
1 Tbsp honey
2 Tbsp almond butter
¼ cup water
1 teaspoon (tsp) vanilla extract
Servings: 6
How to make it: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Dice up cherries and place them on two layers of paper towels in a bowl. Let them sit for 30 to 40 minutes, allowing the cherries to thaw and some of the water and juice to drain out. (This can be done ahead of time). In a bowl, mix the cherries with the remaining ingredients. Spray a baking pan with fat-free cooking spray. Pour mixture into the pan. Bake in the oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until cooked through; do not overcook as the bars will be too dry.
