Calling all Cereal Connoiseurs!! What are some healthy AND t

nickscutie

my favorites are kashi go lean honey almond flax, basic 4, cinnamon cheerios, raisin bran, and kix. All these are tasty and give you a decent nutritional value for the calories. There are a lot of cereal that are mainly empty calories.

One note on cereal, I usually measure my cereal with a dry measure cup and decided earlier this week to weigh it out on my food scale just for the heck of it. I am glad I did, i have been over serving myself cereal for years. If you have a food scale I suggest you weigh it out a few times to see what a serving size in weight looks like - and then weigh out what you would normally dry measure for yourself - I guarantee there will be a difference that is not insignificant calorie wise.

Fiber One Original with fresh blueberries and Greek yogurt. Low cal and satisfies me for hours.

I like to switch my breakfast around and use Almond or Coconut Milk.

I have found Ezekiel 4:9 has a few cereals to choose from but I like the original with flax.

I also have Millet puffs that I add flax seeds and a banana or blueberries.

Bob's Red Mill 100% Whole Grain - 10 Grain Hot cereal.

Ancient Harvest Quinoa Flakes that I have used as a hot cereal.

When I don't have cereal I like to have my eggs & Ezekiel 4:9 low sodium or Spelt toasted and either cantaloupe or pineapple on the side.

Yes, my vote is also for Kashi GoLean! It really packs a nutritional punch with 140 cals/cup, 13g protein, 10g fiber, and only 1g fat and 6g of sugar! A lot of people complain that it lacks flavor...I do admit that it doesn't taste as sweet but its because there isn't much sugar in it (which is a good thing!). But if you add some blueberries (or any other fruit you prefer!) and maybe a dash of cinnamon, you get a perfectly power packed and tasty bowl of cereal! I used unsweetened vanilla almond milk as well.
