This is a great recipe to use up stale left over cereal. It is also a good one for the hotter months since it doesn’t require the use of your oven. The refined sugar in the marshmallows is not healthy but the cereal, nuts, fruit, and seeds that get gobbled up are.

40 large marshmallows
1/4 cup toasted nuts medley of your choice (cashews, almonds, pistachios, walnuts, pecans)

1/4 cup toasted seeds medley of your choice (pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, flack seeds, hemp seeds)
