Crunchy Buckwheat Cereal

  Today, I am going to share one of my new favorite snack food recipes.  This recipe comes from a cookbook that I love, "The Vegetarian Mother's Cookbook".  While eating vegetarian is my choice, I am a little worried about meeting all of my nutritional requirements when I become pregnant.  This is really the only book on the market that I've found, and the recipes in it are great!  The author, Cathe Olson, also provides a pretty good nutritional breakdown of every recipe.

   This recipe is in her breakfast section and is a great alternative to the normal processed cereals or granolas.  I make this snack in small quantities, so that it is easier to mix up and b/c I only use it as a topping.  Once you try it out yourself, you can decide whether you want to make it in larger quantities, i.e. to eat as a cereal.
