I love that this recipe is so simple. I used 5 cups of cereal since so many others recommended reducing the amount. It did help them hold together. I used regular Rice Krispies since my grocery store didn't have the brown rice cereal. Next time I'm at Whole Foods I plan to pick some up. Personally, I found these to be a little too sweet, so next time, i think I might omit the dried fruit and add salted peanuts instead.

Thank you for sharing this recipe! These are so much tastier than Kellogg's traditional Rice Krispies. I love that they're so healthy too. I made a few modifications such as using Kashi 7 Whole Grains cereal..YUM!. For additional tips & photos for this recipe please check out my cooking blog RedLab27.

I prefer these rice crispy treats over the normal recipe and its a GREAT addition that it is also HEALTHIER for you. This recipe is great because you can personalize it. I love blueberries so I use dried blueberries instead of dried cherries.
