It's hard to find sweet treats for kids that aren't packed full of harmful sugar! That was the motivation behind this easier-than-easy treat recipe: a sweet treat that kids will LOVE having packed in their lunch or served as an afternoon snack, hiding superb nutrition and no sugar. 

I used a grain-free cereal called Three Wishes in the recipe below - essentially it's Cherrios made without grains, sugar or gluten. If you'd rather use plain Cherrios that would also work. Another modification that you could make would be to simply bag this treat up rather than chill it in clusters. 

These Trulean Protein clusters are proof that healthy treats packed with good nutrition are possible and taste just as delicious as the sugary stuff that we are trying to avoid. I hope that you and your kiddos love this recipe as much as we do!
