  1. Always a favorite around here, we've been making it for years! I never include the nuts and I always use creamy peanut butter, but otherwise I've used several different cereals (depending on what's in the cupboard) with great success.
     
  2. Was glad to find this recipe after seeing it on the back of a Crispix box - I gave it a go this afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed. I didn't include the optional nuts, although I did use chunky peanut butter. I'm particularly drawn to this version because it doesn't use any butter. What a yummy treat!
     
  3. This is a great snack. My kids love it. I have made it with different cereals (life, cheerios) and it is always good. I have heard this called "puppy chow" before as well.

  5. These are so delicious and easy! I made them to take to a friends house and everyone gobbled them up quickly! I didn't add the peanuts but will try that next time!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

(As many of you know Silent Cricket passed away on Feb. 29. Since she loved Recipezaar so much and so many on Recipezaar have shown their love for her, and have enjoyed her recipes, her personal information will remain here indefinitely just as she wrote it. Her lines at the end of this section sound somewhat prophetic as the last chapter of her earthly existence has been written.) Well, the time has come for me to change my users' name. After being, "OzCoMartha" because of having lived for three years in Australia and then moving to Colorado, I have decided to "turn over a new leaf." I chose this name because many moons ago I used to be able to "chirp" like a cricket and the "silent" refers to the present time when I'm taking a break...But, perhaps after a season, however long I decide that needs to be, I may be back and then I will fill in more details about myself...
