Cereal is one of the ultimate convenience foods that almost everyone loves. It makes the perfect breakfast or sometimes late night snack because it is a quick-fix that’s easy and usually always in your cabinet. Unfortunately, cereal can wreak havoc on the scale for anybody trying to lose or maintain their weight.
We all know breakfast is known as the most important meal of the day. Because it is the first meal you put in your body before a busy day, you should aim for a choice that gives you energy, and is both nutritious and keeps you full.
Making this home-made fiber-filled cereal is just as simple as opening up a box, without the extra sugar and artificial colorings. I am loving this new recipe, and can feel great about every bite! Let me know what you think!
