Happy New Year, everyone! I hope you all had a safe and happy holiday season.
Today’s recipe is one I’ve been loving, and it’s perfect for batch cooking: Puffed Grain Cereal. It’s easy to throw together and filled with tasty ingredients like puffy cereal, sliced almonds, pecans, and cinnamon. It’s the perfect cooler-weather cereal that provides satiety from nuts and warmth from spices and maple syrup.
Eat it with milk, cereal-style, or use as granola for topping your yogurt. Delish!
