I have to say, cereal gets a bad rap sometimes...
and ok, yeah...it is mostly deserved.

Truth be told, most cereal is pretty much junk food, especially
kids cereals which are basically a nutritional travesty...fill kids
full of sugar and food dyes and send them off the school to sit
still for 8 hours...then take away P.E. and cut recess time.
Great idea! Let's do that!

Anyways, I digress... :).

So yep, I had cereal for dinner tonight...and I'm going to tell you
why it was awesome.



1. I didn't just have cereal...I had eggs as well (protein and fats
slow down the digestion of the carbs in the cereal so you don't
get a big sugar crash).

2. The eggs were 6 WHOLE eggs. I NEVER eat plain egg
whites. The best part of the egg is the yolk, both in taste and in
nutrition, and you need both parts to make a complete protein
profile. The cholesterol thing is a total myth. Your body NEEDS
the cholesterol and saturated fats to make important hormones,
like "T".

3. I put in coconut milk (organic from Trader Joes) instead of
cow's milk (lactose and hormones, no thanks) and instead of
soy milk (which is watery garbage...not a fan for a variety of
reasons).

4. The cereal was organic and was made with coconut and
chia seeds (good source of fats and fiber).

5. The cereal and eggs were almost at the expiration date...
just made it in under the buzzer. For the win.

6. I made the eggs with Kerrygold butter...it's an Irish butter
made from milk from primarily grass-fed cows (they say 90%
in their marketing). Costco has giant bulk packs of it and it's
WAY better for you than margarine...which is only slightly
different in molecular composition than plastic (not a joke).

7. I used Himalayan pink sea salt on the eggs (not table salt,
which is just basically raw chemicals...all the other minerals
are purposefully stripped out and sold separately so the
companies can make more money).

8. When you put real butter and good salt on top of fried eggs,
it tastes like you're eating movie theater popcorn...which is
awesome. Terrible for you, but awesome... ;).

8. I put raisins on top for a bit of sweetness...also good fiber.

9. I didn't have any carbs for breakfast and very few for lunch.
I only eat substantial carbs in my evening meals now and it
works GREAT for me. I have plenty of energy during the day,
no energy crash, and the carbs at night are very relaxing.

10. This was my post-workout meal, so my body was primed
to make good use of all the carbs I was putting in.

11. I'm lazy and this meant I didn't have to cook anything (other
than the eggs, but those are easy...I eat half a dozen every
single day for breakfast).

So THAT is why cereal for dinner is awesome...
when you do it right...

Now, not all cereals ARE awesome, though, as I mentioned
above. And there are 4 that really stand out in in that department.
