I've been trying General Mills Fiber One Honey Clusters and have been enjoying it. Sometimes I mix it with some all bran and low fat granola. I'm always looking to try a new healthy cereal. I have a trial box of Kashi Go Lean Crunch to try. Hopefully its good. If anyone has any they really enjoy please share what they are.
anything with fibre in it, but not Alpen. hate the stuff. i would off course have Nasi Lamak for Breakfast and take it to work in a Banana leaf, but they don't grow in our cold climate [UK] so i go without.
I make my own cooked oatmeal cereal squares each weekend for use during the week. Two types of whole grain oats, dates, raisins, pecans, apple, sour cream, spices. :D
I make a granola based on King Arthur's Maple Granola, I add extra oats, a little more maple syrup, some flax seed and more fruit. I was using pecans but went to walnuts to save a little money. Better for omega 3s anyway. Besides bkfast cereal, I use it in breads as well as breakfast cookies, or just out of hand is good too. Addictive! Here's the original, verbatim:
Maple Granola When you think whole grains, as in "I gotta eat three servings of whole grains a day"-think granola, one of the tastiest ways we know to get fiber into your diet. Granola can be enjoyed at breakfast, with milk or yogurt and fruit, of course. But it can also added to cookies, baked into bars, and used as a garnish atop ice cream or fruit crisp. It's very easy to make, and when you make your own, you can customize it to taste with your favorites fruits, nuts, and other add-ins. Or not; granola can be a simple mixture of oats, oil, salt, and a sweetener. So leave out the nuts and coconut and wheat germ and seeds if you don't care for them, or put in additional nuts or fruit, flavors or seeds or. granola is a blank canvas, waiting for you to paint your own delicious picture.
Granola 7 cups (1 1/2 pounds) thick oat flakes (rolled oats), uncooked 1 cup flaked unsweetened coconut 1 cup stabilized wheat germ 1 cup sliced almonds 1 cup diced pecans or walnuts 1 cup sunflower seeds, raw or toasted 1/2 cup vegetable oil 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 cup maple syrup 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 1 cup raisins additional dried fruit/nuts as desired
In a very large bowl, combine the oats, coconut, wheat germ, nuts, and seeds. Mix well. In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil, salt, maple syrup, and vanilla. Pour over the dry mixture in the bowl, stirring and tossing till everything is very well combined; a spoonula or large stirring spoon work well here.
Spread granola on a couple of large lightly greased baking sheets; a half-sheet pan is ideal. Bake in a preheated 250°F oven for 2 hours, stirring the mixture with a heatproof spatula, spoonula, or turner every 15 minutes or so. You want to bring the granola at the edge in towards the middle, so it all browns evenly. When the granola is a light golden brown, remove it from the oven and cool completely on the pans. Transfer the granola to a large bowl, and mix in the raisins and any additional dried fruit desired- dates, figs, currants, cranberries, cherries, apricots, blueberries, etc. Store in a tightly closed container at room temperature for several weeks; freeze for extended storage. Yield: 13 to 16 cups, depending upon the volume of extras you add.
