MEALS ON A BUDGET

Cereal Rating:

Breakfast cereals can be healthy and inexpensive

Ingredients:
With fruit
  • your favorite cereal
  • add any of the following fruits
  • bananas
  • sliced strawberries
  • blueberries
Directions:


Adding fresh fruit to breakfast cereals is a great way to spice up an otherwise boring cereals.  Fresh fruits also are very nutritious and healthy for you.  Cold cereals are traditional and boring unless you jazz them up with some sort of fresh fruits or even chocolate chips.  It is a cheap and easy meal, usually for families on the go that need something fast to make for breakfast.  Add a side of toast or other type of bread like muffins with jams and really, it can become a cool little meal in itself.

Tib-bits of history:
 
Breakfast cereals have their beginnings in the vegetarian movement in the last quarter of the nineteenth century, which influenced members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the United States. The main Western breakfast at that time was a cooked breakfast of eggs, bacon, sausage, and beef. The first packaged breakfast cereal, Granula (named after granules) was invented in the United States in 1863 by James Caleb Jackson, operator of the Jackson Sanitorium in Dansville, New York and a staunch vegetarian. The cereal never became popular; it was far too inconvenient, as the heavy bran nuggets needed soaking overnight before they were tender enough to eat.
