Cream of Wheat is an under-appreciated and often neglected breakfast option. It’s relatively quick for a healthy, warm breakfast meal, and it’s extremely versatile. With just a little experimentation, you can take something very plain and turn it into pizazz and glitter!
Here’s the tasty breaky I whipped up earlier this week:
Prune Morning Porridge
Serves: 3
Total time: 5 minutes
Dishes: 1 pot, 1 chopping board, 1 knife, 1 stir spoon
Ingredients
2 cups vanilla rice milk
1 cup filtered water
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/2 cup Cream of Wheat Cereal
5 prunes, chopped (adjust to… taste?)
1/4 cup walnuts, chopped
1 tbsp organic maple syrup (adjust to taste)
Preparation
- Heat milk, water and salt to almost boiling in a medium pot.
- Add Cream of Wheat Cereal slowly to milk mixture, stirring constantly. Cook and stir until mixture begins to thicken (about 2 minutes).
- Reduce heat to medium. Stir in chopped prunes, walnuts and maple syrup. Cook and stir for another minute.
- Serve topped with additional maple syrup or milk, if desired.
- Enjoy!
