Breakfast Cereal Bowl

This is the easiest, yet such a great start to any day; it is a healthy reinvention to the quintessential breakfast with a variety of fruits and flax seed for crunch and nutrition without the added sugar and sodium found in most cereals. It is directly inspired by Rip Esselstyn, the developer and writer of the "Engine 2 Diet", which has helped thousands lose weight and reduce their cholesterol by omitting animal products, processed foods and sugar from their diet. I just started following his diet regime, and I am already starting to feel better than ever! This is most definitely one of the easiest and most delicious way to start the day!

Ingredients
1/2 cup raw instant oatmeal
1 cup Kashi cereal (choose from any assortment available)
1/2 cup unsweetened, almond milk
A handful of assorted berries
1/2 kiwi, thinly sliced, skin on
1/3 banana, chopped
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
1/4 cup almonds, chopped
1/8 cup flax seeds

Preparation
Combine both cereals and top with the fruit and chopped almonds. Drizzle with the almond milk just prior to serving and garnish with the flax seeds.

Serves: 1
