Strawberry Protein Bread

This summer fruit is made even sweeter by including it in comforting bread. Enjoy your slice warmed, toasted and even cold.

Freeze bread slices for re-heating later. Make sure they're tightly sealed inside freezer safe bags or containers. Microwave each slice for approximately 20 to 40 seconds, depending on microwave strength. Cover the bar with a damp paper towel to keep it softer.
