Ingredients
- 5 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 1 cup Freeze-dried strawberries
- 1 cup Vanilla Greek yogurt chips (low-fat)
- 2 tablespoons Strawberry jam (low-sugar)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened almond milk
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, add the Rice Chex cereal and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the strawberry jam, honey, vanilla extract, and almond milk. Heat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds or until the mixture is warm and pourable. Stir well to combine.
Pour the warm strawberry and vanilla mixture over the Rice Chex cereal. Gently stir with a spatula to evenly coat the cereal without breaking it.
Sprinkle the powdered sugar over the coated cereal and toss gently to ensure an even coating.
Add the freeze-dried strawberries and vanilla Greek yogurt chips to the cereal mixture. Stir carefully to distribute evenly.
Allow the mixture to sit for 5-10 minutes to let the coating set before serving.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
