I'm not sure how many have heard of this family favorite of ours but we refer to it as "puppy" chow. (chex cereal covered in chocolate,peanut butter and powdered sugar).

But I've tried my hand at a gluten-free version and it turned out really tastey! So for those who'd like a little christmas munchy for you or your kids give this recipe a whirl! (Please note, its certainly not calorie free!)

Gorilla Munch Cereal (Gluten free, and found my local Kroger, or Whole Foods grocery stores)

Melt down chocolate chips and peanut butter in a small sauce pan. Add as much as you desire of the Gorilla munch until it is completely coated with the peanut butter and chocolate.

Take a brown paper sack or ziplock baggy, fill it with powdered sugar, Add the coated cereal. Seal the bag and shake like crazy to coat the cereal with the powder sugar.

Empty the contents into a serving bowl, and there you have it.. "puppy chow". Its quite tasty, just not calorie free I'm afraid! :)

Enjoy!

Health Valley makes gluten-free corn crunch-em and rice crunch-ems that are a one-to-one substitute for chex, if that would help.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
