This recipe is nut-free, perfect for kids lunchboxes.

 

To make gluten free variations of this recipe try using puffed buckwheat or puffed amaranth in place of the puffed brown rice, both available at health food stores.

 

Try using any citrus zest for a different flavour ... all lemon, all lime, orange or mandarin zest.
