I’m someone who enjoys cereal in the summer time. It’s quick, crunchy, filling and the flavor combinations are endless! But I always get annoyed that their isn’t an easy way to take your cereal on-the-go without having to carry an armful of bulky containers. Well lemme blow yo’ mind… you can create your own cereal to-go container with just 2 materials: a mason jar + a plastic bag.
Here’s how you do it:
- Fill your mason jar with your (whole-grain) cereal of choice and any desired dry toppings (nuts, seeds, unsweetened dried fruit, etc.).
- Slip just one corner of your plastic bag into the mason jar, folding the rest of the bag over the sides of the mason jar.
- Slowly pour your milk (or milk-substitute) into the plastic bag. (Be sure not to fill it ALL the way up.)
- Screw that top on tight and you’re ready to rock-and-roll! (DON’T forget to pack a spoon.)
I also bring a banana along to make a complete, balanced breakfast meal.
What cereal concoctions do you plan on taking to-go?
