You should try a literal ****-on-a-shingle.

Is "Chopped" serving as inspiration? I watched one where they had to
use rice crackers in something. I forget if it was the main dish or
dessert.

I've heard of folks topping their White trash casseroles with crumbled
corn flakes.

I put pulverized Rice Krispies in my homemade chocolate chip cookies.

There was a recent one where they had to use rice cakes in the entree round.

<snork> I stand corrected. Shows you how much I buy those things.

That's an oldie, but back when I did things like that - crushed potato
chips were better. Potato chips are also a good coating for oven
fried (aka: baked) chicken.

I think that the first casserole I ate as a kid was an abomination made
with potato chips and canned tuna. As far as casseroles go, it is more
of a scar than a memory.

Can you still taste the rice krispies after you pulverize them? Or does the
flavor blend in with the other ingredients?

The question is "why waste your time"? They add nothing but empty
calories, they have no character after they've been pulverized and if
left whole, they would go limp immediately after being combined with
the other cookie dough ingredients.

Yeah, cuz Froot Loops don't work as expected.

That sounds like a very legitimate use of "cereal as an ingredient."
Rice Krispies are like the carbohydrate equivalent of pork rinds. I
could imagine them being attractive in a coating for fried chicken,
especially mixed with something like Bob's Red Mill wheat gluten, and
maybe some pulverized pork rinds. I'd like to try that, but no one
here would eat the rest of the box of them. My favorite chocolate
chip cookies are oatmeal lace chip.
Ah, so many carby treats, and so few days to enjoy them. Tomorrow is
carb up day. French toast made with dense wheat berry bread
(Brownberry), with liberal amounts of maple syrup mixed with Karo
light. Then I lift until it hurts.

I like potato chips in tuna salad sandwiches. As a kid my friends mom
stuffed potato chips into BLTs, used less bacon that way.

I've put them in chocolate chip cookies before too, and have another I
make with coconut and Rice Krispies and they are great. Sunday I made
Orange Slice Cookies with oatmeal, coconut and Corn Flakes.

I've used crushed Corn Flakes to coat baked chicken, and crushed Rice
Chex for the top of a favorite baked potato casserole and a long time
favorite no-bake cookie, using Special K cereal, peanut butter, corn
syrup, etc.

Tuna salad with potato chips sounds great.

I guess that would be kind of dry though.

Drink a lot of water.

I have tried both of those relatively recently. Not bad. I think
my daughter had the former idea, and I eventually tried it. You
may have mentioned the latter before, or someone else here did.
Not as good as bacon, but better than nothing. Of course, it
depends on the chips. Hmmm. I bet I could get bacon-flavored
chips at The British Store.
