I’m going to share with you a bigger, better, crunchier breakfast cereal. Also more nutritious. Some of you aren’t going to be interested in this concept at all, and that’s cool. For some of you, this is going to be a game changer. Because all of the the components are dry, your are rewarded with weeks of quick breakfasts, and you can easily scoop some into baggies for simple travel breakfasts.<\/span><\/p>\n

I had been making my own dry cereal breakfast blends for months before things started to get more interesting. I started making it in increasingly larger, and larger batches. We eventually got to the point where I like to cherry-pick boxes of favorite cereals, dump entire boxes into the most massive bowl I can find, and add quick oats, oat bran, ground flax, and freeze dried fruit. After that, give everything a good toss, and transfer to two XXXL glass Weck jars<\/a>. The big-batch thing is the magic. Especially if you’re at all lazy, but still want a great breakfast.

I’m including the recipe down below for what I think of as my \u201cbase\u201d cereal recipe. That said, I encourage you to use it as a jumping off point. Try not to get hung up on whether you can track down the <\/span>exact<\/i><\/span> cereals I use. My cereals of choice are oat flakes, shredded wheat, plus some sort of dense nugget cereal. Broadly speaking, a mix of sugar-free \/ whole grain \/ high-fiber cereals is what you’re going for. Said another way, a mix of textures, and nutrient diversity. <\/span><\/p>\n

This is the berry version (photos above and below). But there are times I do a tropical version, swapping out the berries for freeze-dried bananas, pineapple, and apples. Big flakes of toasted coconut is also a good add. You can also introduce fresh fruit when you add the milk, along with anything else you have on hand that might be a bonus.<\/span><\/p>\n
