Breakfast treat with a little crunch
Hi guys,
I treat myself with this for breakfast about twice a week. The measurements on the fruit and cream are pretty close to exact, since I use a half-bag of frozen (no sugar added) fruit and measure the cream but the rest is estimated. It is estimated high though (I scoop out a little less than 2 tablespoons for each), so the numbers are safe. 1 cup Frozen Peaches nuked to hot and blotted mostly dry. Add 1/8 cup General Mills Fiber One Cereal, 1/8 cup Chopped Walnuts, and top it with 1/8 cup Heavy (aka Double) Cream. 27.5 grams carbs 13.5 grams fruit sugars 16 grams fiber **or** 1 cup Frozen Strawberries nuked to hot and blotted mostly dry. Add 1/8 cup General Mills Fiber One Cereal, 1/8 cup Chopped Walnuts, and top it with 1/8 cup Heavy (aka Double) Cream. 27.5 grams carbs 13.5 grams fruit sugars 7.5 grams fiber Once in a blue moon, I'll do it with frozen blueberries, but I really don't like blueberries often. I eat less blueberries when I do it with those. Just 1/4 bag instead of half. It'd probably be good with frozen raspberries, blackberries, or mixed berries too, if you like those. I don't like them at all so have never tried them. I'm sure it would be good with fresh berries, but I live in Alaska and the frozen tends to be more affordable (and incidentally, available year-round) and I've developed a taste preference for frozen over fresh. It's an awfully yummy treat. No good for Atkins Induction, of course, but okay a couple of times a week for OWL. RohzMari 255/204/140 ...started LC WOE on April 1, 2003.
