others I haven't tried yet but sounded good..
2 cups Quaker oats (or equivalent)
2 tbsp natural peanut butter
8 scoops (240 g) generic brand whey protein powder (or equivalent)
1 package sugar-free, fat free-Jell-O (I use white chocolate)
Dash of cinnamon
Dash of vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
1 cup COLD water
After the bars set up in the fridge, I put them in the freezer for 2 hours and then cut them into 8 individual pieces. After a workout, I let them thaw for 30 minutes or so and they are consistently firm and not squishy or runny. Why? The Jell-O mix. Be sure to use cold water when mixing the Jell-O and whey, as it sets up nicer. Aside from baking, these bars are second-to-none to being able to stay firm when thawed out. They yield (approximately) per bar:
225 calories
6 g fat
23.5 g protein

Brought the water, honey, splenda to a boil. Added the PB, and lowered to a simmer. Threw the oats and cereal in a bowl. Take the liquide off of the stove when the PB is melted into the mixture, and add vanilla. Mix the liquid into the dry ingrediants, put in a baking tray and put under broiler for 1 minute.
