Nutrition:

The serving size depends on many variables. The size of your pan, thickness and size of your bars are the biggest ones. My bars were cut into 20 even bars about an inch wide. The smaller your bars the less calories you consume in one sitting. However, the smaller the bar the less protein you are consuming.

Serving Size: 1 bar out of 20

Calories: 209

Sodium: 60 mg

Carbohydrates: 14.2 g

Fiber: 4.7 g

Protein: 6.4 g

Note: If the tray was cut into ten bars then the amount of protein per bar would be 10 grams per bar and the calories would be 349 calories.
