New Spin on Cereal

Do you like oatmeal?
Do you like cold cereal?
Have you ever thought of eating them together?
You may think I am nuts, but that's what I do. I found this idea in a vegan cookbook. I found a great one that even has a section for campers/backpackers which I love because it's so hard to eat healthfully while camping!
The basic recipe:
Your base is oats and grapenuts (or grapenuts like cereal)
Use more of those than other kinds of cereal.
Add other kinds of non-sweetened cereal. Cheerios, puffed rice, wheat chex etc. Feel free to buy the cheap kind. I like to watch the fiber count of a cereal to know if I'm buying garbage or not.
Mix it all up, add dried fruit if you wish.
To serve, measure out a cup of cereal mix, and stir in a cup of boiled water. Wait a few minutes and eat.
I wasn't too sure about it the first couple times I tried it, but then my body started to crave it. And I love it now!
Make sure to let me know if you try it and what you think.
