Baby's Breakfast

Served in a Hello Kitty bento side container, with apple slices.

 

That WTH is this face.

Today I discovered two things. 1. You can feed babies Cream of Wheat! and 2. My son hates it. 
Which, in hindsight, were both kind of obvious things. Then, I got smart and added a little Strawberry Jam and he couldn't get enough! 
Here is a simple, microwave method to make this yummy cereal, including add in's suggested by my friends.

Ingredients:

(baby-sized serving)

2 tablespoons Cream of Wheat (found in the cereal asile)

3/4 cup milk

Directions: Combine ingredients in a (baby sized) microwavable bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir, microwave 30 more seconds, stir... until it gets as solid as you like. I like mine the consistency of oatmeal, but some prefer it more liquidy, like porridge.

Add-ins:

Try one or a combination of these

1-2 teaspoons of sugar

1-2 teaspoons of butter

1-2 teaspoons of your favorite jam or jelly

dash of vanilla

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tablespoon cream (or your favorite flavored coffee creamer)

1 tablespoon of hot cocoa

1 squirt of chocolate syrup
