Mixed-Grain Hot Cereal
The portion size of this hearty breakfast is quite small, but this cereal, combined with a piece of fruit, will keep you going from morning until lunch. Bulgur wheat is high in fiber, low in fat, and offers a nice nutty taste. Serve this cereal topped with syrup, unsalted butter, or a sprinkle of brown sugar.
