Thank YOU General Mills! For all of you (celiacs) out there that have been waiting for a brand name, gluten free cereal (other than Cocoa Pebbles-eating those for 3 months has gotten old) say hello to the new and very improved Rice Chex cereal. Perusing the shelves and shelves of the grocery store my (also celiac) mother spotted the box, with the words GLUTEN FREE printed proudly on the box. Pre-gluten freeness, Rice Chex had contained the all hated *MALT FLAVORING*, the downfall of many of our favorite cereals. But, recently, Rice Chex has gone gluten free. They are great drizzled with honey, sprinkled with sugar, topped with fruit, anything. Enjoy this easy-to-find, yummy cereal. And, while you’re at it, try this delish recipe for a great “party” or bake sale mix.

“Puppy Chow”

1/2 cup Peanut Butter
1/4 cup Butter
1 cup Chocolate Chips
1/2 tsp. Vanilla
9 cups Rice Chex cereal
1-1/2 cups Powdered Sugar

1. Combine peanut butter, butter and chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl.

2. Microwave for one minute then stir to blend all ingredients thoroughly. Add 1/2 tsp. vanilla. Stir well.

3. Pour over cereal. Coat with powdered sugar.
