Expert Tips

Individually wrap these hearty cookies to take along on days when "on the go" is a must.

Substitute walnuts or peanuts for the cashews, if you like. Bits of any dried fruit can be substituted for the dried cranberries.

These sound good. I'm a Celiac so I can't have the cereal, but might try it with Gluten Free Chex.
