review: *new* Nature Valley -- Raisin Oat Clusters

Earlier this year I reviewed the first Nature Valley (flake) cereals: Honey Oat Clusters and Chocolate Oat Clusters. Now they've added Raisin Oat Clusters to the lineup. But they could've added more raisins. Isn't that my usual complaint--where's all the raisins? And then they're usually at the bottom of the box? Well, this time it really does seem like there's just not a lot of raisins going on. There's the little corn flakes and the heartier wheat flakes and just enough sweetness--even apart from the raisins. But I could've used more raisins. I guess I could always sprinkle a few raisins on there if I really needed it.

fun on a bun...

Technically, the bun is optional but I just have to recommend these Spice-Rubbed Chicken Breasts.  I thought it sounded like a different kind of chicken sandwich for me and I'd never made a rub before. I have plenty of recipes but none which triggered an immediate response of, "I must try this." Also, I'd never purchased cumin before. It smells like the primary ingredient in a packet of taco seasoning, so you can see why it would need to be balanced out with brown sugar. Actually, all of the spices work well together, even the little tang of thyme. I think I'll be trying it on salmon next.
