These have a lot going for them but my gluten free 2 year old did not like them! And she usually will eat everything. I think I would like to try this with something other than brown rice crispies...not sure what! Overall I like the flavors of the nut butters together and will try some variation of this in the future.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
Housewife and cook for over 17 years, Angela Poch has researched healthful living for her family and friends, leading her to become a lacto-ovo vegetarian. Having irritable bowel from her youth, Angela found lying on her back extremely painful along with other daily tasks, until a friend shared a healthier lifestyle. She and her family became strict vegetarians in 1999, and this change improved her health significantly. Due to the medical literature showing the benefits of such a lifestyle combined with exercise, Angela began to have a desire to share this good news with others.
That desired to help others live happier, healthier lives drove her to hold health luncheons in her home with help from her mother, Diane as well as holding cooking schools across British Columbia for over 5 years. After much prompting from friends, she set out to write a series of unique cookbooks for healthful living. Having created and adapted many recipes for the Health Luncheons, cooking classes, and friends with food allergies and sensitivities, it wasn’t too hard to come up with the recipes needed. In addition, a few recipes were donated or inspired by friends. You can see some of these recipes free at http://www.HealthyHomeCookin.com
With help from my father Wayne Castellarin and husband Jim, I also started Sette Studio (http://www.SetteStudio.com) to photograph the food for these cookbooks and that in turn branched into custom bookmarkers, nature photography, location photography, stock photos, and more. I graduated from the New York Institute of Photography in Aug 1007. Photography continues to be one of my most fervent passions besides the Bible and Spirit of Prophecy.
As a home schooling mother I saw the need for character emphasis in the home to help families have true happiness. Thus http://www.healthyhappyhomes.com was born and a work in progress. I am currently working on a Character Course for Children.
As a graduate in Nutritional Counseling from the Total Health School of Nutrition in Calgary AB, I continue to research health to help others have better mental and physical health.
