Rice Chex Recipes

So now that Gluten Free Rice Chex has made their way to the east coast, we are dutifully doing our duty and eating box after box. :P Today, we made treats (everybody is in ball so I'm a snack producing machine at this moment in time - Yk, they can't remember the last time they had a meal when they play ball ;)

Here's today's recipe

melt/boil 1 cup sugar with 1 cup light corn syrup

add in 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1 cup peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)

mix in 6 cups rice chex

put in 9 x 13 pan and allow to cool slightly and then drop a bag of chocolate chips in

mix well

allow to cool

Messy but sooo GOOD

Next week, I will cut the bag of chocolate to 1/2 and add in a bag of mini marshmellows.

Any other ways to use Rice Chex?? Who's had great hits so far?

I plan to use the pizza recipe on the website next week as well except put into a pan to make bars.

IF this site is any indicator of sales potential , other cereals should be going gluten-free before long. Rice chex sales should be at an all time high! My oldest is dying for kellog frosted flakes.

thanks

Stacie

i like the muddy buddies...if you havent tried those yet.

also if you can thicken the mixture up, you can crush the rice chex and make them like no-bakes. just drop them on wax paper while they cool. sooo good.

i have also made granola bars by breaking them up into pieces and adding gluten-free corn flakes. then add your favorite flavors (mine are pb and choc chips). if you can find a granola bar recipe there is a lot you can do with them.

I take a handful of walnuts and almonds, throw them in a pan with a tiny bit of brown sugar. I toast them for 3-5 minutes. During that time I melt chocolate chips, I use the dairy free kind. Then I take rice chex and honey nut chex and spread them out on a cookie sheet. I mix in the nuts with the chex and drizzle chocolate off a fork on the entire batch. Throw them in the freezer for 10 minutes and you are set. So tasty! And easy to make, almost guilt free snacking =)

Yummy recipes! Muddy buddies are still my fave, but I'm gonna try some of these. I keep envisioning some sort of rocky road something or other that I want to make w/ rice chex. I need to check out their website!

So, is this just like muddy buddies, except for you crush the chex up and make little clusters? that sounds awesome!

yeah you make it basically the same...except you make the chocolate mixture thicker (or you could maybe just use less cereal, i havent tried that way) so it makes little clusters. you can even use the powdered sugar, you just wont use as much. i am a big chocolate fan though and i like the ratio of chocolate mixture to cereal to be higher:) delicious

My family favorite is the "Monkey Munch". Here's the recipe:

1/2 cup peanut butter, creamy style (or permitted nut butter)

1/2 cup margarine , butter or ghee

6 oz chocolate chips

10 cups Rice Chex cereal

2 cups powdered sugar

1. Melt peanut butter, butter, and chocolate chips in a saucepan over medium heat.

2. Pour over cereal, coating all the cereal.

3. Put powdered sugar in large paper bag.

4. Add cereal and shake well until coated.

5. Put on wax paper to cool.

*****

You can also crunch up the chex and put them in meatloaf or use as a breading for oven fried chicken (though we prefer instant mashed potatoes for that!). I also had a friend use the chex to make "rice crispy treats". She just subbed the chex for the rice crispies, and it was awesome! I can't wait to try the things with the new gluten-free chocolate chex and honey chex!!

A chex heads up...Rice, Corn, and Honey Nut chex are now all gluten free!!!! I am munching on a box of honey nut ones at the moment. For the honey nut chex, they took out the barley malt and replaced it with molassas and the corn chex I believe was replaced with rice malt. The front of the box now says gluten free and the back of the box has a wonderful little gluten free tidbit. It says "the irresistible flavor and hearty crunch of honey nut chex is now gluten free. Gluten free means that honey nut chex does not contain gluten, a protein found in wheat, rye, and barely." Exciting stuff!

I make Monkey Munch with cashew/macadamia nut butter or sunflower butter because daughter has a peanut allergy. It's waaaay too sweet for my tastes, but she likes it. Likes it a little too well so I don't make it often.

Wow, great to hear about the corn chex!! I'll have to look for that here. I am going to make some rice chex treats today for my daughter.

This is my favorite chex recipe, I was hoping for gluten free strawberry chex to mix with it because I sometimes add in dried strawberries or blueberries:

Tropical Chex Mix

8 cups Rice Chex

When I made them I was thinking they'd be good in a rocky road version too!

They have a section for gluten free recipes and now that the corn chex and some of the others are gluten free alot of these recipes can be made accordingly. Hopefully they will update. Also, with the exception of the wheat chex, alot of the other recipes can be adapted and things substituted. I found this one while looking for things for a halloween party and thought this would be great!

This recipe is excellent. This tastes like a brownie, but it's the consistency of a chewy rice krispie treat. We crushed the Rice Chex slightly to make them smaller and easier to chew for the kids. We only made half the recipe which is a good thing because we'd eat it all...but we put it in a 12x8 pan so it was thinner. We ate some slightly warm because we couldn't wait, and that was great too. Enjoy! Here is the original recipe from the link above:

Ingredients

6 cups of Rice Chex

1 cup of chocolate chunks/chips (make sure gluten-free)

1 pound bag of Marshmallows (any size)

1 1/2 sticks butter

Cooking Directions

Throw the butter in a big pot over low heat until melted.

Add the marshmallows and stir consistently until completely melted (10 minutes or so).

Add the chocolate and the Rice Chex, stir until the cereal is completely coated.

Scoop out the mixture and press into an 8" x 12" pan. Press to compact. Place in fridge to cool.

Once cool, slice into squares and chow down!

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics. I have had Celiac for 40 years. Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything. I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference. After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made...

      Hi Katht - I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was...

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics.  I have had Celiac for 40 years.  Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything.  I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference.  After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made their own probiotics I started making Milk Kefir: not water Kefir. There are 10 probiotics in milk KEFIR. After 3 weeks I was able to eat more, no gas, no IBS.  If you have a computer just ask for videos on making milk Kefir. I branched out and make my own Kombucha for even more probiotics. I do not make my yogurt because there are only about four probiotics in that. I started this when I was 82 and I still make my own Kefir and Kombucha. My stomach issues were fixed with the Milk Kefir alone. If you decide to try making it, make certain you order MILK GRAINS. The finished product tastes a bit like Buttermilk. I hope this helps in your journey to good health.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.
