MyWayCereal Review

Some mornings I get up and my mind starts throwing excuses to avoid my daily morning run. Other mornings I practically bounce out of bed, excited to tackle my run so early in the day.

This morning was a bouncing out of bed morning. 🙂

I think I was still on a high from yesterday’s run and wanted to see what I could accomplish again this morning. I knew I was going for a longer run so I tried to pace myself around 9:30. I ended up completing 7 miles in 1:05:36 and was able to finish with a smile on my face.

I am really finding the key to feeling great after runs is to do a nice stretch so as soon as I walked in the door I took to the floor and really stretched my legs. I even popped on Polly’s new Yoga for Upper Thighs and she had some great moves to stretch out the upper quads.

After a big run I was craving a big breakfast. Luckily I had some new cereals to try and review for you.

MyWayCereal.com sent me a coupon a couple of weeks ago to sample their product and with my slight obsession with cereal I jumped on the chance.

MyWayCereal.com is very similar to the MixMyGranola.com I reviewed a couple of weeks ago. It is a wonderful website where you can design and create your own cereal with mix-ins. You start with a base then can add fruit, nuts, and even some sweets.

MyWayCereal.com prides themselves on all organic ingredients with no artificial anything.

After making my initial order I have to admit there was quite a delay in receiving the cereal and when I did there was something a little off about my Mix-Ins.

Apparently they had mixed up mine and Missy’s from Missy Maintains order. They were very sorry about the mix up and encouraged me to keep her mix ins so that I would have more to review.

Unfortunately Missy Mix #2 contained Bananas but Missy’s Mix #1 was right up my ally.

The mix contained an Oh’ Os Base, Apples, Blueberries, & Choco-Cherries. I was expecting the Ohs to be similar to Cheerios but they weren’t at all. They were lighter and not sweet at all.

My Mixes arrived yesterday afternoon and I welcomed the new additions to my cereal routine.

My Graduate Meghann’s Mix contained Multi Grain Harvest, Dates, Mango, Flax Seed, Walnut & Sunflower Seeds.

This one was interesting as the flakes were not sweetened at all. There was not as much dried fruit as I would have liked and I never found a sunflower seed. Maybe they sunk to the bottom? I did enjoy the crunchiness of the cereal and the chunks of walnut.

Meg’s Crunchy Mix had a Vanilla Granola Crunch Base, Apple, Currants, Coconut & Crystalized Ginger.

I really liked the Granola Base and how much fruit and coconut there was interspersed throughout the granola. However, I don’t know what I was doing adding crystalized ginger to my mix. I’m not a big fan of raw ginger so why would I like the crystalized from. It added a lot of spice to the mix which I guess if you are a big fan of ginger then it’s ok.

My bowl with 1/2 cup of all the above mixes, Black Berries, Strawberries, Vanilla Chobani, & Naturally Nutty Chocolate Butter Toffee Peanut Butter.

These cereal pieces were sooo crunchy. I really enjoyed it and because there is no additional sweeteners added to the cereal it was not overpowering and complimented the sweetness of the fruit and yogurt perfectly.
