Easy Peasy Breakfast in a Jar

So I'm jumping on the bandwagon and trying out (enter whatever the heck you can think of here)-In-A-Jar!
Anybody else tried this new-found trend?

Well, this morning, I had a little bit of peanut butter left in the jar...
I'd say about a tablespoon or so...

So I threw in the last of my Raisin Bran...
probably a half-cup

Topped it with one sliced banana

Stirred it all around-and DEVOURED!

It may sound strange... but boy oh boy was it nummy! 

If anyone else has some delish ...-in-a-jar recipes-leave the link in a comment below! 

Peace, love and peanut butter.

Attune Foods - Cereal LOVE

Cereal.
Quick, easy to prepare, delicious, satisfying.
What's left to say? It's the perfect meal.... but is there evil lurking? 
Let's take a look-see!
Hmm... 50+% of its weight is sugar? Cool.
NOT!

Alright alright, so point made-not all cereal is the 'perfect' fuel for your body.
But not all cereal is made to sabotage your attempts at living a healthy life.
Enter, Attune Foods
That's their theory, and I like it!

So they were kind enough to allow me to sample some of their products and let you wonderful readers know my thoughts

I was sent
And

Raisin Bran = SUCCESS! 
Why? Well, aside from being tasty, just the right amount of sweetness from the raisins, it also has AMAZING nutritional stats..
Check it-
Yeah Buddy! See that? The sugar? No? 
OH WAIT! That's because there isn't any!
I get soooo annoyed when cereal companies think it is necessary to add sugar... like for reals?! Come on, it is a cereal with raisins- a naturally sweet food-why are you adding more sugar?!
Whatev. I'm over it... (not really)

But anyways - 
This is what the Raisin Bran looks like...

Not huge flakes like you may be expecting-smaller, but still delicious, don't get me wrong!


I added some blueberries on top and devoured that bowl!

So it's no secret I love their Raisin Bran, but what about the others?
Well, the Erewhon Crispy Rice got thrown into my Peanut Butter Granola recipe - and boy oh boy was it a success! Try it for yourself, you won't be sorry!

And the Uncle Sam Original? GREAT!
It had a neutral flavor that allows for you to add whatever kinds of mix-in's you want and have your bowl of cereal perfectly match your taste!
(I enjoy slices of bananas and using strawberry milk, crazy maybe-delicious yes.)

So that's that! 
I'm loving me some Attune Food cereal!
They make delicious products, with minimal-but wholesome ingredients that you can feel good about putting in your body.
No preservatives, no artificial anything, no harm, all yum!

Attune - Simple Ingredients. Simply Made.
(Kristen's addition - Simply DELICIOUS!)
