Good Snacks???!
I need some good snacks that are easy to make out of common ingredients, preferably not using the stove, though the microwave would be okay!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
You need:
1 Bag of butterscotch bits
1 Cup of creamy peanut butter (you can use crunchy if you prefer)
6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal
Melt the butterscotch bits and peanut butter in the microwave on a medium power level like 7, until they are smooth!. Stir them every 30 seconds to one minute as they will melt quickly and then turn tough if you heat them too long!. When you get a nice smooth texture stir in the Rice Krispies until they are all covered!. Press into a 9 x 13 inch pan that has been sprayed with Mazola, and allow them to cool!. You can drizzle them with melted chocolate chips if you want to!. This should give you about 20 squares!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

-You can get flour tortillas and cheese and make a quesadilla in the microwave!. Dip it in salsa or sour cream if you like!.
- You can layer your favorite flavor of yogurt, plus fruit and granola in a glass for a yogurt parfait!.
-Sometime I'll just slice a banana up and eat the slices with a glob of peanut butter (a handful of chocolate chips is awesome with this)!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
