So this isn't really a recipe, and if you've never sliced ripe fruit and eaten it on cereal before, I feel sorry for you, but I'm just trying to post a lot of meals I eat at home, to share ideas and satisfaction.
Today's cereal topping was about three strawberries and a whole, small peach, all sliced up and followed by a generous pour of rice milk. The peach, my first sample of the year, was perfect, absolutely delicious. The strawberries two, but I had already eaten 20 or so since I bought them yesterday.
These flakes I bought last week for the first time. I've heard amaranth is good for you, and I don't see myself cooking any in the immediate future so I figured I'd try this cereal, which actually has a bunch of other grains mixed in as well. I've been trying to add more grains to my life so I don't survive on mostly wheat with a little corn and rice thrown in. Most of us eat a LOT of wheat, which is the grain used for any baked good that doesn't specify otherwise, and anything called simply "flour."
Anyway, I haven't had a lot of cereal-worthy fruit lately, since it's mostly been oranges and apples for the last few months. I guess apples would be okay for cereal, but I tend to use them more as a portable fruit option since their such tough guys on the road. Point being, this simple bowl of cereal was sort of exciting.
Just to confirm there were some flakes in the bowl, and not just fruit:
Also, this strawberry hearts you, and I do too.
Love, Julia
