Thread: Cereals

oatmeal or bran flake's with a small amount of honey on them or just plain.

Special K is the only cereal that has a low GI rating, w/ the exception of bran I think. I eat oats every morning.

It's Bran Flakes for me. It's an excellent source of fiber. I add some raisins and wheat germ, too.

I like oatmeal or hot cereal like Wheateena of Cream of Wheat. I have this as an afternoon snack at about 3:00 when you get that carb craving. At Wild harvest-type stores you can get a huge bag of oats, they are the good kind that don't turn all gluey. I make mine by bringing skim milk almost to a biol, then add the oats and a dash of salt, cook for 1 minute. Yum! I know this sounds gross, but it's even good cold.

I eat frosted shredded mini wheats, plus I have a whey protein shake.

Frosted Mini Wheats or Raisin Bran for me, with skim milk. Then in about 30 minutes I start my workout. Follow that with whey & flax shake, works good for me!

Get my carbs and fiber right off the bat with the cereal! If I just do an egg white omlette I just dont feel good after working out.

I eat oats mixed with All Bran.

OATMEAL!!! I never really cared for it until the wife made me start eating it a couple weeks ago. Now I LIKE it!

As far as cold cereals go, Kellogg's Raisin Bran has always been my favorite. And your colon will thank you the next day two.

Raisin Bran is good. Has anyone tried Vector? I love the stuff.

I mix mini shredded wheat with bran flakes and a sprinkle of honey nut cheerios for flavor (When I eat cereal). I don't do that to often. That's alot of carbs.

What about Cheerios? They pretty much seem a staple in everyday life.

Cheerios don't have much for fiber. If I'm going to have a high carb type cereal then lets get some fiber!

pop tarts and a banana good combo (not really)

Count Chocula! <--after the sugar crash. . .

It is phenomenally yummy (which could be a bad thing), but it is also overpriced.

Hmm, thanks animal, I will try it out sometime!

How are grapenuts? Never looked at the box, and don't have one lying around at the moment.

What's with that name anyway - they don't have grapes or nuts in them.

Quaker Oats Oatmeal, cooked not instant. Put a heaping tablespoon of flax in and some cinamin. Sometimes I will add some protein in also. Along with 8 egg whites and two whole eggs. It is good for you but just about the most tasteless breakfast ever.

It does make the chicken breasts look better though.

oatmeal, kamut flakes (just like oatmeal), cream o'wheat, spelt cereal (just like cream o'wheat), quinoa grains, Bob's Red Mill 10 grain cereal: wheat, bran, soy, tricicale, rye, flax and some other good stuff, cracked wheat, rye and flax (a form of Red River Cereal), kashi...

I often mix a few together for different textures and flavors.

Tomorrow's brekkie is spelt cereal, spelt kernels and cracked wheat, rye and flax. I put a little clarified butter, or flax and raw cane sugar or honey.

well i just bought mini-wheats.. only 5gram of protein tho

I think grape nuts have pretty low GI too...
