review: Banana Nut Cheerios

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this already. I guess all those Cheerios eventually run into each other. So this is another one of those corn-and-oats blends with a sticky-sweet banana flavored coating. I had it with a banana. Never can have too much banana. Just a few minutes I had a taste for banana bread, mainly because I really overdid the pumpkin this month.

But back to the cereal...picture Cinnamon Burst Cheerios but with a banana flavor. It isn't even as nutty as Honey Nut Cheerios. I will say, though, that there aren't a whole lot of banana cereals on the market, so you might as well go with this one.

This entry should really be longer but I have a lot going on today. Battening down the hatches for Sandy, you know? So don't be surprised if there isn't another entry before Saturday.

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.

whatever mama wants, mama gets

And mama wanted sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts. She didn't say together in one dish but I figured someone must have put those two together. I went with these Maple Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Sweet Potatoes  even though we had pancakes for breakfast. We won't be having maple syrup again anytime soon. A quick note on this recipe: my oven is super super hot so I roasted at 425 degrees. Even then I almost obliterated those sprouts. Always fix more sprouts than you think you need. As for the pancakes? I'm slowly working my way through the Whole-Grain Buttermilk Pancakes  variations from Eating Well. This time I made blueberry and set aside some berry-less batter for my mom. She went back for seconds and actually ate one with blueberries. And then I set aside some time yesterday for the cake. I should've really cleared my day but it couldn't work out that way. But I'll get to that in my next entry.
