Muddy Buddies
I haven’t made these in a while but got a sudden craving for them this morning. I may have to stop by the store for the cereal while I’m out running errands today!
This is also called puppy chow (though I can’t bring myself to call it that) and for some reason, “trash.”

Melissa!!
“Puppy chow” does seem to make it sound cuter (and the kids liked that better than “muddy buddies”)… and it’s infinitely better than calling it trash!
