If you are wondering what the heck kamut is, go to your local health food store, bulk barn, or big grocery store (that carries more than the basics) and pick up some ORGANIC PUFFED KAMUT. It is delicious (and very healthy)! I used to feed this to my boys as an early finger food, and often found myself sneaking a piece here and there. I now always have it in the house and eat it for breakfast (with or without milk) or as a snack on the go. My boys still love it and I certainly do, too! That is why I thought I should try and use them in a recipe somehow. This is what I came up with. It's simple, quick, few ingredients, and they are DELICIOUS. Maybe even better than regular rice krispie squares (which I love, too!). I hope you are willing to give these a try. You won't be disappointed! Enjoy!
FACT: "Kamut is a good choice if you want to incorporate whole grains into your diet to boost your nutrition. It is high in protein, thiamin, niacin, potassium, and zinc. This hearty whole grain is a great source of protein, minerals, and vitamins which contribute to high energy levels, a healthy immune system, and proper muscle and nerve function."
