Christmas Protein Muddy Buddies (Puppy Chow)
INGREDIENTS:
-6 cups Rice Chex (we used Honey Nut, but any will work. Can also try Catalina crunch for half of the recipe for more protein)
-1/4 cup Wavelength Vanilla Protein Powder
-2/3 cup dark chocolate chips (or any preferred)
-1/3 cup nut butter
-1 tbsp coconut oil
-3/4 cup powdered sugar substitute (try Lakanto powdered Monkfruit) or regular powdered sugar
-Optional: Mini Christmas M&Ms
DIRECTIONS:
Pour powdered sugar and protein powder into resealable plastic bag.
In saucepan over low-medium heat, add nut butter, chocolate chips and coconut oil and melt until smooth and mixed well. Can also microwave chocolate and coconut oil in 30-second increments, then add nut butter.
Pour cereal into large bowl.
Pour chocolate mixture into the cereal bowl and toss until evenly coated.
Pour all mixture into the plastic bag with the powders and shake until well-coated.
Spread on parchment paper to cool completely. Mix in the optional M&Ms.
Store in refrigerator to keep it fresh & crunchy!
ENJOY!
