Make sure you buy preservative-free dried fruit. You can substitute any of the dried fruit with your favourites, depending on
what you have available. We prefer the smaller paler puffed rice as they have lots of crunch to offer. We like to eat this with
soy or rice milk and some fresh berries scattered on top. You can also add a good dollop of soy yoghurt if you like, along with
your fibre option. To make a larger quantity, you can just double or triple the recipe.
