Vending Machine Recipe #8 - Caramel Apple Corn

Today I wanted to try something that would approximate a caramel apple. I found these Quakers Caramel Corn rice cakes and I combined them with an Apple Cinnamon Nutri-grain bar. The cinnamon flavor overpowered the caramel flavor unless when mixed one-for-one. I decided the best way to eat it was to make a sandwich out of it. Two caramel corn rice cakes for the bread and the nutri-grain bar for the filling. The most suprising aspect of this recipe was the stark contrast between the dry crunchy rice cakes and the moist gooey cinnamon apple filling of the Nutri-grain bar.

Ingredients:
1 Apple Cinnamon Nutri-grain bar
1 Bag Quakes Rice Snacks - Caramel Corn flavor
Serves: 2
Price: $1.75

Instructions:
Make a sandwich by using two rice cakes as the bread and by breaking off a piece of the nutri-gran bar as the filling. Makes about 3 - 4 sandwiches with one nutri-grain bar.
