No Bake Breakfast Bars
/I've been dying to make healthy cereal bars. And when I came across Kashi by Kids brand new breakfast cereals made with whole grains and chickpeas, I was totally inspired. First and foremost, these new kids cereals don't disappoint. I picked up the Cocoa Crisp flavor which literally reminds me of Cocoa Krispies - yum! They also have a berry flavor and cinnamon, which look like little tiny cinnamon rolls. So cute and so fun!
You can make this recipe using any of your favorite cereals and you probably already have the ingredients in your pantry. So there's no excuse not to get cooking, or not cooking since this is a NO BAKE recipe. Mouth watering already?
Note: the nutrition does not account for the chocolate drizzle. It's just 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips + 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil; melt in microwave and drizzle on top.
