5 Ways to "Jazz Up" Your Cereal

Same time. Same morning. Same cereal.

BOOR-ING!

Why eat the SAME thing EVERY morning when you can eat the SAME thing EVERY morning, but jazzed up? J Doesn’t make sense? As a one of my best friends always says, there’s a method to my madness (usually it’s his madness, though…).

Try one of the following suggestions to change up your morning cereal routine:

Add fruit – banana slices, chopped apples, fresh or frozen berries, etc. Or dried fruit – raisins, cherries (my personal favorite), cranberries, etc.

Add nuts – slivered or whole almonds, walnuts, pecans cashews.

Try a different milk – soy, almond, rice, hemp---you can find every milk under the sun these days.

Mix two different cereals – a fairly simple cereal based on grains, such as wheat, corn, rice, or bran will mix well with a sweater cereal. This way, you still can eat your favorite cereal, but cut down on the sugar, and keep the milk white. J

Make it hot – oatmeal, grits, buckwheat, or even brown rice taste delicious with fruits, nuts, and milk.

So, how will you jazz up your cereal?
