Cereal Mix
My mom is big on food “mixtures”. Many times they’re foods that really have no business being combined. However, I think she’s onto something with her cereal mixes. I had been meaning to mix up my own cereal concoction for some time, so when she gave me a big Tupperware container the other day, I finally got to work. My first batch includes Kix, Rice Chex, Raisin Bran Crunch, Cheerios, Cinnamon Puffins and a high-fiber honey mix from Trader Joe’s. It makes cereal prep easy in the morning, and gives the kids just the right amount of sweet flavor plus the nutrition they need.
$14.50 or $19 for Cereal Storer or Super Cereal Storer at tupperware.com
