It’s my favorite time again… Snack time! Lately, I have been loving the blueberries at the produce store! They are so ripe and sweet that I have to stop myself from eating the entire container in one sitting! Most of us love blueberries but do we all love rice cakes? Probably not. But seriously- Don’t discredit rice cakes! With added toppings, rice cakes are a delicious, crunchy treat. I typically have these as an afternoon boost, kind of a pre-dinner snack. I used plain brown rice cakes. Careful with the sugar and sodium in the flavored ones. Hope you enjoy!
