Questions about Cheerios cereal
How much Cheerios cereal is a usual serving?
A typical serving is about 28 g. Weigh it once so you can judge the portion by eye rather than pouring straight from the box.
What can you add to Cheerios cereal for breakfast?
Pour over milk or a fortified plant drink, then add sliced banana, berries or chopped pear. A spoonful of yoghurt makes the bowl thicker and adds a cool, creamy contrast.
Can you eat Cheerios cereal with yoghurt instead of milk?
Yes. Stir it into yoghurt just before eating if you want the rings to stay crunchy; leave it to stand for a few minutes if you prefer them softer.
How should you store Cheerios cereal after opening?
Seal the inner bag or transfer the cereal to an airtight container, then keep it in a cool, dry cupboard. Keep the lid closed between servings so moisture does not soften the rings.
Can you use Cheerios cereal to make a crunchy topping?
Yes: crush the rings lightly and scatter them over yoghurt, stewed fruit or a crumble topping just before serving. For a savoury coating, press crushed cereal onto chicken or fish before baking.
Is Cheerios cereal high in fibre?
Yes. It is high in fibre, with 10 g per 100 g; a 28 g serving provides about 2.8 g.
How much energy is in a serving of Cheerios cereal?
A typical 28 g serving contains about 104 kcal before you add milk or toppings.
