A Recipe For Carbo-Bars

(Recipe supplied by Joel Wilkinson, triathlete and former National Biathlon Team member)

Use as a meal replacement and before, after, and during workouts for carbohydrate and electrolyte replenishment.

Mix: 2 cups malto-dextrin
         2 cups oatbran
       2 cups rice flour
       4 tablespoons fructose
       6 tablespoons cocoa
         1 teaspoon sea salt (to balance potassium in electolyte supplement)

Add one cup water mixed with 1 tablespoon glycerine and 4 teaspoons Vita-Plex Naturals (effervescent calcium/magnesium, potassium, zinc, trace minerals, vitamin D)

Knead mixture together, add extra rice flour if too wet. Roll out on cookie sheet and leave in refrigerator overnight to firm up. Cut and put in ziplock bags or Stretch & Seal wrap. To make non-caffeinated bars, substitute the juice of one lemon for the cocoa and use only 1 cup of water.
