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.

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!

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Theresa2407 · Posted

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Possible celiac - need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Celiac or not??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
