  • Kashi
  • Cheerios! Great source of Fiber and low in cals.

    Also, Special K has a ton of yummy flavors now -- the Vanilla almond and Red Berries are VERY good, and low in cals, too!

    :smile: I am not sure about the health benefits of it, but I LOVE Yogurt Burst Cheerios. It is great for traveling and it can be eaten just like popcorn or chips when you are watching TV or at work.
  • Kashi's Heart 2 Heart Ceral, Fiber Ones honey clusters, and Special K fruit & yogurt

    Kashi brand cereals are really good. In particular, their Golean cereal and both the Golean Crunch! versions. The regular Golean has 13 g of protein and 10 g of fiber with only 140 cal for one cup! I really like it with blueberries and keifir or skim milk!
  • I usually have fruit and nuts for breakfast, so I don't actually eat this but I love nesquick and peanut butter puffs. Mmm.

    Honey Bunches of Oats with Amonds.:heart:

    I say Amonds because when they pick them almonds off the tree they beat the "L" out of them.:laugh: :laugh:

    All Bran Yogurt Bites has 40% RDA of fiber. I have it with fruit, yogurt, sunflower seeds and flax seed. YUM!

    I love my oatmeal!! But for cereals, try Kashi (GoLean is high fiber, high protein), Cascadian Farms Organic line (Fiber Right Honey Crunch, or for something sweet the kids cereals like Cinnamon Crunch or Clifford Crunch are my kids favorites), Nature's Path has a good line too (Pumpkin Flax Granola, Peanut Butter Granola, Flax Plus MultiBran, etc).

    I prefer cereals w/ no HFCS (high fructose corn syrup), no artificial sweeteners (Fiber One uses aspartame) and higher fiber.

    This sounds like a dessert - but its breakfast cereal.

    Layer items in your bowl in this order:

    1/2 cup lowfat granola
    1 small sliced banana
    1/2 (small 6 oz container) fat free vanilla yogurt
    just a sprinkle of more granola
    1/2 cup sliced strawberries, or blueberries, or blackberries, peach, whatever
    The rest of the yogurt
    sprinkle of granola or fruit - for top garnish

    You'd be surprised by the amount of food in your bowl. I serve this to guests for breakfast all the time. No cooking required. Served in small a glass bowl this breakfast is also quite pretty.

    Yum Yum:tongue: Really does sound like dessert! About how many calories is this per bowl? I'm too lazy this evening to figure this out:laugh:

    Thanks for posting:flowerforyou:

    i alternate between raisin bran, honey bunches of oats with almonds, and frosted mini wheats. they have lots of fiber and protein and taste great too. one cup with one cup of skim milk is always around 300 calories and gets me full until snack time!

    I'm also a big fan of Kashi - I also love Multigrain Cheerios.
  • Honey Bunches of oats with strawberries
  • I'm really liking the Fiber One Honey Clusters. I usually only eat 3/4 Cup rather than the 1 Cup suggested serving. I love Honey Nut Cherrios or the Cherrios with the clusters too but they just don't have the fiber that Fiber One does. The fiber really helps me feel full.

    FiberOne with blueberries and soy milk and oatmeal with cinnamon.

    I'm a huge fan of Kashi- my favorite is Go Lean Crunch, and my second favorite is Go Lean... soooo good :wink:

    I love any of the cereals that have red berries.
  • I'm currently mixing 3/4 cup Kashi 7 Whole Grain Puffs with 1/4 cup GoLean Crunch and lowfat milk. It's the perfect combination for a little bit of sweetness and the added crunch from the GoLean with all the great health benefits of the 7 grain puffs!

    WE have to limit my son's glueten intake and we've been getting the new glueten free chex cerals. He loves the cinnimon and the hone nut flavored ones. There is also a brand, I can't think of the name at the moment, but we get it at Schnucks in the healthfood section. They have animals on the fron because so much of the money thay raise goes to save the animals. Anyway, they have some similar to kix and peanut butter kix. Those are really good. I enjoy both of these as well.

    Are you talking about Peanut Butter and Cinnamon Puffins? My girls love those as well. Also, Peanut Butter and Cocoa Bumpers are another organic kids cereal that my girls like! And Gorilla Munch.
