Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Protein Bars

I named these bars based on how I think they tasted; hearty and chocolatey with the right amount of banana to complement the oat flavor.  Considering these were protein bars they ended up tasting pretty good, not overly sweet but not overly 'healthy' tasting either.  They are easy enough to make and are a very versitile recipe that can be changed and manipulated to your own preferences.  I got the recipe from Cookie Madness but after searching for a while I found that this recipe was on lots of other websites as well in slight different variations. 

I decided to use mashed banana (about 2 medium bananas) instead of yogurt, and used oil instead of peanut butter.  I also used chocolate protein powder which gave it a little bit extra hint of sweetness so I only used 1/2 Cup brown sugar to compensate.  I'm not a huge fan of protein bars but my boss at work eats them everyday and really enjoyed these.  So if he can give them two thumbs up then I'm satisfied.  Let me know what your favorite protein bar is and I've posted the recipe above for you to try.
