Cereals are not really my thing first thing in the morning. 6:00 am, my first breakfast is two slices of toast and Marmite with a cup of coffee to wash down the Amlodipine and Ramapril tabs. 10:00 am, my second breakfast being two pork pies and a glass of water with an aspirin.
Brilliant Don, Once again. Some Cereals are so Expensive these days, especially the Low calorie ones. It is Time consuming looking along those Shelves when the supermarket is very Cold with A/C Full Blast. The best cheapest choices are in Aldi, A Choice of a Few, Cheap Prices and Low calorie with Red Berries Mmmm. Happy Breakfast Hun. XXXX
Porridge with either blueberries or bananas for me don 5 days a week i allow myself a full english or omelette for the other days , well its nice to treat ourselves once every so often
I have a place in N.Wales were I can camp in a field and have a full-English at the farmhouse in the morning. I dare not stay there for more than a day or two. 🙄
Absolutely true, Don! However, since going on a very low salt diet I have found only one cereal I like that fits the bill. So now I don't need to stand there choosing from the vast array. Every cloud...! xx Moy
Fruit ‘n’ fibre used to be my favourite but my new teeth are just not up to dealing with those hard bits anymore. 😟 Tesco brand was always considerably cheaper than Kellogs and I could never tell the difference.
I make my ow muesli: 1kg porridge oats, 200g each almonds, hazelnuts, chopped brazil nuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, raisins and oat bran. To serve, put 4 heaped desert spoons in a bowl and add some milk. Delicious.
I usually don't measure the nuts and seeds precisely, just put in half a 350g packet. Make sure you get the catering packets (no VAT) rather than the snack packets (smaller and far less for your money).
A tip to anyone who suffers with diverticulitis - a bowl of Scott's Porage Oats Old Fashioned Thick Scottish-Milled Oats plus a sprinkling of muesli like Ergendl's moistened with Alpro Coconut Original - I don't use milk as it can cause mucus - completely cured my diverticulitis and that of a near neighbour - also tis far better for you and more cost effective - that's my preaching for the day done
p.s. had a lovely day at the hospice hub - brilliant Shiatsu massage p.p.s. I forgot to say don't cook the oats - just have as they pour from the box!
