This Gluten Free Breadcrumb Recipe is super easy and only takes about 2 minutes to make in your Vitamix or Food Processor! These breadcrumbs taste amazing and will work perfectly in all your favorite recipes… 1 for 1, just like the regular kind!
Most bread crumb recipes call for a stale or dried loaf of bread… But this recipe uses Enjoy Life’s EXTREMELY Crunchy Rice Cereal – and it works perfectly! I’ve been using this cereal for years in my Mojolicious Snack Balls & we love them!
*** UPDATE*** I’m sad to report that in 2018 Enjoy Life decided to discontinue the Perky’s Nutty Rice Cereal (insert me throwing a two-year old fit)… I’ve yet to find a perfect replacement, but I now use Schar Gluten Free Table Crackers in place of the cereal – these are delish!
We use this recipe for making Fried Zucchini & Fried Chicken, Onion Rings, Meatloaf & Meatballs, Casseroles & adding flair to all kinds of dishes. More recipes coming soon!

It appears as if the Enjoy Life Crispy Rice Cereal is no longer available which is a bummer! Any suggestions for an alternative?
I wanted to try this recipe, but I have found out that Enjoy Life Crunchy Rice Cereal has been discontinued by the manufacturer. I was wondering what you now use in place of it.
I just clicked on the link to see what it was and if I could substitute for crispy rice and the link and comments say bring back the cereal…….do you have a recommendation of a substitute? I was going to try the “rice”krispy idea?
