Healthy Chocolate Snack Bars? You bet!

Guilt free CHOCOLATE bars!
Just because you're eating a healthy diet doesn't mean you have to give up snacks. Check out this latest concoction using Beachbody's Chocolate Shakeology. (Note to vegans - regular Chocolate Shakeology uses whey protein, but you can use Vegan Chocolate Shakeology instead to totally avoid animal products.)

Here's the recipe:
1. Combine Shakeology, oats, peanuts, and raisins in a large mixing bowl and mix well.
2. Add almond milk and peanut butter; mix well.
3. Press mixture into 8x8 inch baking pan; cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours
4. Sprinkle with peanuts if you're fancy.
5. Cut in 24 bars and enjoy (just not all 24 at once).
