Matcha Rice Krispies

There’s something so special about warm summer nights in the Italian countryside, surrounded by nature. As I soak in these moments, I’m reminded of my childhood, and the simple joys that make life so special. One of my favorite childhood snacks growing up was Rice Krispies, and I wanted to create a healthier version Romeo and I could enjoy together. It’s amazing how the love and care we put into our food can nourish not just our bodies, but our spirits as well.

Here’s what you’ll need:

1. 6 tbsps grass fed, organic butter
2. 1/4 cup organic black sesame seeds
3. 10 – 12 oz. bag natural sweetened marshmallows or homemade marshmallows
4. 1 pinch salt
5. 1 bag (6 cups) organic rice krispie cereal
6. 1 cup organic white chocolate
7. 1 tbsp coconut oil
8. 1 1/4 tsp organic toasted sesame oil, plus more for greasing the pan
9. 2 tsp Morning Ritual Matcha

Step-by-step:

1. Melt 6 tbsps of grass fed, organic butter in a pan over medium heat.
2. Add 1/4 cup organic black sesame seeds, mix, and let sizzle for 30 seconds before adding one bag of naturally sweetened marshmallows.
3. Add a pinch of salt and continue stirring the marshmallows until they are completely liquified.
4. Once the marshmallows are melted, add 1 1/4 organic toasted sesame oil and organic rice krispie cereal to pan and mix until thoroughly combined.
5. Coat pan with organic toasted sesame oil, press the mixture into a pan lined with baking paper for easy removal and let it cool in the fridge for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
6. In a small pan, heat water. Place a bowl on top to create a double boiler and add organic white chocolate to the bowl to melt. Add one tablespoon of organic extra virgin coconut oil and stir until the white chocolate is completely melted.
7. Add 2 teaspoons of Morning Ritual Matcha to the melted white chocolate and mix thoroughly.
8. Spread the matcha white chocolate evenly over the cooled rice krispie mixture.
9. Allow the topping to set, then cut into squares, serve, and enjoy!
