What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Splurge-Worthy Goodness: Cereal Milk Smoothie! After yesterday’s post, it’s only fair to give the kids equal time on a delicious treat. Grown-ups, simply tap your heels together to be transported back to a time where you started your day at the kitchen table with a bowl of your favorite cereal. Remember how the sugary sweet morsels crunched their way to mushy softness leaving the milk at the bottom of the bowl tasting like syrup? At that point my brother would put down his spoon and lift the bowl to his mouth to slurp up the remaining goodness. Of course Mother never saw it, as she was usually standing at the counter buttering toast with her back to us. Well nowadays, the nostalgic flavor of cereal milk smoothies are a thing. Anyone with a sugar addiction is jumping for joy. And why shouldn’t they? It brings out the inner child in all of us.
CEREAL MILK SMOOTHIE
Ingredients:
1 cup Crispix* cereal
1/2 cup skim milk
1/2 cup Greek yogurt
1 banana, sliced and frozen
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2 tablespoons agave nectar, separated
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Sprinkles, for garnish
Instructions:
In a blender, combine cereal, skim milk, Greek yogurt, frozen banana slices, cinnamon, nutmeg, and one tablespoon agave nectar. Pulse until smooth. On a sheet of waxed paper, crush a few cereal pieces until almost fine. Add sprinkles; mix together. With the remaining agave nectar, apply to the rim of a glass. Dip the glass into the topping to coat the rim. Fill with cereal milk smoothie. Add a paper straw. Serve immediately.
*I receive no recompense for mentioning this product.
Doesn’t seem interesting.

You have to go crazy over cereal. As a kid, I left the milk in the bottom of the bowl. 🤣 Don’t tell.
