I have found a new treat.

Banana Nut Cheerios!

I have gotten into the habit of eating cheerios as an evening snack.

This is to replace the former snack of cookies or ice cream or some other fattening treat.

I actually lost a few pounds doing this.  I know you are not supposed to eat after 7 or 8 at night, but if I am hungry, I am going to eat and I am usually hungry around 8:30.

I have been eating Honey Nut Cheerios or regular Cheerios, but then I saw the commercial for the new Banana Nut Cheerios.

Butera had them for $2.50 a box, which, if you know anything about cereal, is pretty cheap.

They are good!  They taste and smell like Banana Nut bread!

The other day I had the brilliant idea that they might be even better with chocolate milk.  Like a chocolate covered banana.

I put just a little in a bowl and put some chocolate milk on them.  I had to dilute the chocolate milk because it was too chocolaty, but it’s pretty good!

I can’t say which way I like it better.  Both are good.  It is fun to change it up every now and then though.
