🙋What Is Fruit Cereal?

Fruit cereal is just what it sounds like - it's cereal, but instead of using grains, you use fresh (or dried) fruit. And, instead of using milk, you use coconut water. The fruit flavor seeps into the coconut water, giving it a fresh and fruity taste. How genius is that?

I love to start my day with a bowl of fresh fruit, and nature's cereal is such a fun and novel way to do just that. Feel free to get creative and make your own fruit cereal bowl - use whatever fruit you have in the fridge, add coconut water, and enjoy a healthy breakfast bowl.

🛒Ingredients

Know that these are only suggestions. Feel free to mix it up and use whatever you have on hand!

• Blueberries: I used blueberries as my fruit cereal base, because I love them. And, they're one of the most nutrient dense fruits you can find. They're loaded with Vitamin C, Vitamin K and manganese. Plus, an entire cup only contains 84 calories.
• Grapes: I used green seedless grapes because part of the beauty of nature's cereal is that you get to eat the rainbow. Grapes are nutritious too. They're loaded with B vitamins, copper and manganese, with a calorie count of 104 calories per cup.
• Mango: I used a cake piping tip to cut out star shaped pieces of mango (just for fun). Mango adds that tropical flavor that really levels up your breakfast bowl. Plus, mangos are a rich source of antioxidants, they aid digestion, and may improve heart health.
• Strawberries: What's not to love about strawberries? They're like nature's candy. It only takes 7 strawberries to equal one of your five a day fruit and veggie quota. Dried strawberries are also a great option!
• Dried Apple Slices: Dried apples gives your fruit cereal a huge fiber boost. You can either chop them up into small pieces, or garnish your whole breakfast bowl with the pretty apple rings. You could also add dried banana chips.
• Pomegranate Arils: Pomegranate arils (or pomegranate seeds) add a bit of tangy twang while making a significant contribution of nutrients. They're rich in fiber, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, folate and potassium. Plus, they look like little jewels, and we eat with our eyes. Right?

👨‍🍳How To Make Nature's Cereal

1. Wash all your fresh fruit.
2. Cut your grapes and strawberries in half.
3. Using a melon baller (or cake piping tip) cut small pieces of mango out. Or, just chop your mango with a knife.
4. Add the fruit to your bowl, pour coconut water in and add optional ice cubes. Garnish with pomegranate seeds and dried apple rings.
5. Enjoy your healthy fruit cereal!
