Several months ago, we cut out cereal for breakfast. It was difficult at first, but has gotten much easier... except for my husband. He seems to miss cereal the most.
My husband is a problem solver though... and he has reintroduced "cereal" to our family.
At first, I was skeptical... apples with milk seemed like an odd combination to me- but, I was wrong!! This is now one of my favorite meals for a breakfast or a snack.
Apple Cereal
1 apple cut in small chunks
1 banana sliced
raw sliced almonds (as much as you'd like- the more the better for me!)
milk or milk substitute (almond milk tastes wonderful!)
Mix all ingredients in bowl and pour milk over the top- eat like cereal!!

Sounds wonderful and totally guilt free! I'm trying it on my girl tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteHmmm.....intriguing. I may just have to try this. Wonder if my 4 year old would give it a try. :)
ReplyDeleteThinking of you and your newest family member. Hope your adjustment is going smoothly and you are getting some sleep.
I wasn't sure how my kids would react- The older two loved it- the two year old didn't eat it, but that doesn't mean he won't eat it the next time I serve it... he was just too busy throwing a fit about the fact that he wanted a whole banana!
DeleteOh, and thank you for your comment about my growing family :) Sleep hasn't been too rough... getting anything done, at all, during the day has been a huge challenge, however!!
DeleteWe do something similar, and add a little unsweetened coconut to it. It's really good!
ReplyDeleteOhhh... that sounds good! I'm going to have to give that a try!! Thanks!
