It never fails when I buy granola or muesli that there are always things I like better than others in the mix. Sometimes I even find my kids picking out their favorites and leaving the rest in the bowl! What if you could mix up your own personal or family blend of breakfast cereal that is healthy and contains all of your favorites? Further, you can see the nutritional information right there as you create it?

Great news! Last month I was introduces to a new merchant called MixMyOwn. Using their website you can customize your breakfast mix with as little or as much of 100 different ingredients. Start with a base like muesli or granola (they even have whole grain or gluten-free). Then start adding base ingredients like flakes and puffs. Sweeten it with dried fruits. Make it crunchy with nuts and seeds. Finish it off with extras like Bee Pollen or Acai.

Choices too overwhelming? Start with a popular premix like Fitness Mix or Gluten-free Mix and then customize it.

As you are building your cereal, the nutritional information will appear on the screen. Try a smaller 12 ounces bag or go big with 16 ounces.

We’ve all heard that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Start your day right with a healthy mix of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Not only can you create a healthy cereal but one that is perfect to your taste.
