Let’s Eat: Cocoa Puffs and Cookie Crisp
We’ve done it again! We’re veganizing another tasty treat in the name of nostalgia. To help promote our new YouTube channel, Lex and Marri’s Hot Dish, we decided to recreate 2 American breakfast cereals with our co-host and friend Alexa. Today’s recipes are not only vegan but gluten-free as well, so they can accommodate many diets and restrictions! They also use most of the same ingredients, so you can prepare both with just a few swaps.
