Vegan & Gluten Free Rice Crispy Treats
Rice crispy treats were such a delicious and nostalgic snack from my childhood but they aren’t vegan, OR GLUTEN FREE? I decided i had to make a vegan and gluten free version so my fellow vegan’s and gluten free friends can try them and i put a little high protein spin on them by throwing in some of my favorite Vedge Nutrition Protein Powder.
