A Childhood Cereal Treat

The other day a received a picture message from my friend Steph. It was a picture similar to this one.

Reformulated to be Gluten-Free

Fruity Pebbles are her favorite cereal and when she saw they were gluten-free she had to tell me right away. For my birthday, I decided I would relish in a meal that would take me down memory lane. (Plus I really wasn't all that hungry since we went out to Chevy's for a birthday lunch.) I have taken to putting cereal over yogurt. I learned this when I was a nanny, and it makes it easier and faster to eat cereal. I eat a whole milk yogurt to keep hunger pains at bay longer. I also looked for a gluten-free yogurt that has tons of active pro-biotics. This one is my favorite.

It is also more expensive than other yogurts, but I find it worth it. I have tried to go back to a skim-milk yogurt and I find myself snacking between meals.
Best yogurt ever
After not having Fruity Pebbles in many years, I was not anticipating the sweetness level to be as high as it was. If I ate the whole box, I don't know if my blood sugar could handle it.
I don't recommend Fruity Pebbles with yogurt, they are much better over milk or dry straight from the box. In fact, I had to have an apple to make my stomach settle.

Although my eyes loved the rainbow of colors inside the bowl.

Like fireworks in a bowl
