ADHD Friendly Recipe: Chocolate Fiber Bars

There’s nothing I like more for breakfast than a homemade protein-fiber bar for on-the-go. Each square has 5 grams of fiber and 5 grams of protein – perfect for quick pick-me-ups in the middle of the day or for a great start to your morning when making anything feels like too much work.

If you make a few batches at a time, you can freeze them for a full month to prepare yourself for those inevitable days when eating anything feels like too much – or when you know you’ll be craving a sweet treat. 

This was adapted from a recipe I made with GetDopa for the 555 short video series (easy ADHD foods with 5 ingredients and 5 steps). Once this one goes live, I’ll link it here 🙂

Enjoy!
