Brown Rice Cake with 1/2 tsp. Honey:
This snack would be perfect for this time of year: allergy season. Currently, there are studies considering the possibility that local honey may actually help alleviate your allergies by introducing your body to pollen spores. By doing so, your body is thought to build up an immunity to pollen so that when you are exposed to it through the air, your body has already produced antibodies to fight against it, preventing or decreasing the severity of those horrible allergy symptoms. You know what they say; a teaspoon of honey a day keeps the doctor away!
