We're always looking to try new things, especially new food, so when a friend of ours mentioned a 9 grain cereal he found at Whole Foods, we went right out to get some. We found our 9 grain cereal in the bulk section and tried it this morning.
To prepare our hot cereal, we combined 1 part dry cereal with 2 parts water (about 1/2 cup dry cereal/person) and simmered it on the stove top for about 10 minutes (until all the water was absorbed).
It was simple and quick.
And while it cooked we had a chance to cut up some fresh fruit. Champagne Mango for me and strawberries for Tom. I also added a little milk and some maple syrup to my bowl, while Tom opted for a simple sprinkling of sugar. It made for a delicious breakfast that was light, but also filling. And we're excited for all the possible variations we can try (cinnamon & sugar, peanut butter & banana, coconut & blueberries....).
It's safe to say this breakfast cereal will be reappearing several times in the near future!
