My One Hundred and Tenth - Soggy Cereal -100 Meals You Never Thought You Would Eat Pureed - Recipes for Head and Neck Cancer patients

My One Hundred and Tenth  - Soggy Cereal -100 Meals You Never Thought You Would Eat Pureed - Recipes for Head and Neck Cancer patients

I miss cereal.  I mostly miss the crunching.  I remember waking up for high school at about the same time as my dad went to work, and he hated the sound of hearing crunching of cereal in the morning.  I don't blame him, I hate the sound of other people crunching cereal too. But crunching is off the table.

Watching Saturday morning and Sunday morning programs with cereal commercials is starting to become a drag.

You know there are some mornings when you want to share breakfast with your children . . . scratch that.  You there are some evenings when you want to share breakfast with your children because it is a breakfast for dinner kinda night????  Just do it.  

There are some night when you just want to sneak a bowl of cereal into the bedroom . . . Just do it.

RECIPE
Seriously, you don't know how to pour a bowl of cereal.
Let sit for 10 minutes before you puree (Except a cereal like Grape-Nuts, they might take a little longer to soak).


MILK
Use animal or vegetable milk.  Cereals were designed with the idea that you were going to add milk of some kind.

RAISINS
If you like cereal with raisins, know that there is a good chance the raisins will sink to the bottom of the blender. SEE YOGURT

STIRRING
Most cereals have a habit of sinking to the bottom of the puree, just like they do in a cereal bowl. Cereals, that normally float in a cereal bowl, will sink in a puree, because you have pureed all the air out of the cereal.  Think about using a spoon to agitate the puree if you are pouring in a tube.  For lip-sippers, the last sips can feel like sludge, so stirring helps keep the puree consistent.

YOGURT
Adding yogurt to a puree helps to keep the cereal from sinking to the bottom. Full fat yogurt works best.

ADDING SUGAR
Talk to your nutritionist. Adding sugar is a double edged sword.  I only use brown sugar, solely for the flavor.  I prefer using maple syrup or molasses with some cereals like Corn Flakes.

MARSHMALLOWS
I know some of you jumped right down here to see if I puree cereal marshmallows - yes I do.  If the puree is cold, you can get an annoying scum on the surface.

FRUIT
I'm a fan of blueberries and strawberries (remember bananas burn some patients mouths).  Only need a little for flavoring.

  1. How Mr Benjamin Lee service granted me a loan!!!

    Hello everyone, I'm Lea Paige Matteo from Zurich Switzerland and want to use this medium to express gratitude to Mr Benjamin service for fulfilling his promise by granting me a loan, I was stuck in a financial situation and needed to refinance and pay my bills as well as start up a Business. I tried seeking for loans from various loan firms both private and corporate organizations but never succeeded and most banks declined my credit request. But as God would have it, I was introduced by a friend named Lisa Rice to this funding service and undergone the due process of obtaining a loan from the company, to my greatest surprise within 5 working days just like my friend Lisa, I was also granted a loan of $216,000.00 So my advice to everyone who desires a loan, "if you must contact any firm with reference to securing a loan online with low interest rate of 1.9% rate and better repayment plans/schedule, please contact this funding service. Besides, he doesn't know that I am doing this but due to the joy in me, I'm so happy and wish to let people know more about this great company who truly gives out loans, it is my prayer that GOD should bless them more as they put smiles on peoples faces.
