His human test subjects wouldn't comply with the higher protein, higher calorie diets he needed them to eat for the sake of his research. Some of these studies ran for months and Dr. Lemon needed to make it convenient for subjects to consume the right nutrients. So he came up with the idea of no-bake protein cookies. Simply mix protein powder with uncooked oatmeal and natural nut butter, train hard and get big. It worked, and the test subjects finally made the gains expected. Here's my own version of that recipe that's close to the original, but a lot tastier: No-Bake Weight-Gainer Cookies Ingredients 1 and 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats, uncooked 3/4 cup (171 grams) natural peanut butter or nut butter of choice 3 scoops (90 grams) Metabolic Drive Chocolate 1 cup unsweetened organic coconut flakes 3/4 cup warm water Directions Add oatmeal, protein powder, and coconut flakes to a bowl and whisk these dry ingredients together.
