Healthy Rice Krispie Treats
You read that right; Even rice krispie treats can be made “healthy” with a few substitutions. Primarily, we’re going to replace the marshmallows with honey, add some oats for fiber and – of course – mix in some protein powder. Peanut butter is also in there, for flavor and to thicken things up a bit.

- ⅓ cup honey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
