Preparation

1. Coat a 13" x 9" pan with cooking spray.
2. Melt butter and peanut butter together in a large, deep pot over low heat, stirring occasionally.
3. Add marshmallows, and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.
4. Mix together wheat germ and dried strawberries then stir in cereal. Stir well to coat.
5. Using waxed paper or a spatula, spread into prepared pans.

*As if Rice Krispie Treats weren't good enough, these have a terrific peanut butter and jelly flavor. Since it is impossible to eat just one square, to reduce fat, substitute reduced fat margarine for butter, and use low-fat peanut butter or reduce to 1 tablespoon. Try dried cranberries, blueberries and cherries for variety.
