Cereal is a staple in our house. It helps to make mornings easy because it’s so quick and there is really no prep involved. It’s also a great snack. When we have it as a snack, we usually eat it dry, without milk. It’s also very portable. If you have really busy days, you can put some in a little portable container to make it a quick grab and go snack. It’s, even more, fun when you add other ingredients to turn it into a snack mix. Here are some dry cereal snack mix ideas for you to try.

Depending on the cereal you buy, you may not have to add too many ingredients. For example, Honey Maid S'mores cereal is pretty much a snack in and of itself. It’s chocolaty goodness, sweet marshmallows and the delicious taste of HONEY MAID® Graham Crackers make it the perfect cereal to snack on. I still like to add a few things, but it’s pretty much a complete snack already. You should try it! I found it at my local ShopRite store. Check here to find it at a store near you.
As you can see, the sky’s the limit when it comes to creating your own snack mix. There are no hard and fast rules when it comes to making a snack mix. You can truly make it to your own liking.
