I am admittedly really picky when it comes to picking out cereal.
I really don’t like starting my morning with a bowl of sugar – especially when it leaves me hungry an hour or two later. But there are times throughout the summer when cereal is easy, cold and delicious. Like now. Thankfully there are some cereals out there that are good enough for my breakfast bowl, but they can be pretty hard to find.
Look for:
Whole Grains in the first few ingredients
No more than 5 grams of sugar per serving
At least 5 grams of protein per serving
At least 5 grams of fiber per serving
Decent serving size (ideally at least 3/4-1 cup)
Favorites:
Kashi Go Lean : excellent stats (13 grams of protein, 10 grams of fiber), tastes great and actually fills me up
Uncle Sam’s Original : no sugar, excellent stats (7 grams of protein, 10 grams of fiber) and perfect with yogurt
