### Notes

**Kidney Stone Diet Safe Tips:** There is a story behind these protein bars. My friend down the block just had her condo flooded, and obviously, it has been rough. So I made these bars, put them in a wrapper, and tied them up with a purple ribbon (her favorite color). Her dog and Finn are also best friends. They have to go to a hotel for a few days while her place gets dried out, so I thought these would cheer her up in her hotel room for breakfast.

 

I use this [high fiber oat cereal](https://amzn.to/47eitQN) as it is the best. It’s a staple in my meal plan recipes and has excellent fiber, protein and is low oxalate. I have it on subscribe and save I use it so much.

 

The mold I used to make the perfect bar form is [found here](https://amzn.to/3yX5ciS). And the [wrappers here,](https://amzn.to/3XcafUw) along with the [purple bakery string](https://amzn.to/3Mxa9lr). Makes for great gifts. If you do not have a granola mold, use an 8×8 glass dish. I used my beloved vegan/ no sodium/no sugar/high iron/[pumpkin seed protein powder](https://amzn.to/47hvj0I). I have it delivered each month!

 

I used my [vanilla paste](https://amzn.to/3MzK31g), which provides a richer flavor than extract, and also [cake batter extract](https://amzn.to/3yW9xTr)(not listed in the ingredients bc it is not offered in my nutrition calculator). The cake batter really ups the flavor. I used chopped pecans, so I didn’t have to chop them myself!

 

These bars are high fiber, vegan (use nondairy milk), high protein, low sodium, zero added sugar, and just plain good. If you need a bit more sweetness, you can add some zero-sweetened brown sugar. I like [Swerve](https://amzn.to/3Xcsc5h)—you do you. A dollop of plain Greek yogurt on top will give you more protein if you wish and I also used my pumpkin spice recipe. [Here it is](https://kidneystonediet.com/no-salt-snack-seasoning-recipes/), along with other free spice recipes.
