Can someone please explain to me what the brown rice cereal in the recipe for cereal, flax, almonds, walnuts, and apples is? The only rice cereals I could find were Rice Krispies and baby cereal. So I bought some organic brown rice cereal (with a picture of a baby on it) and the "cereal" that I made from the recipe is really more like soup with apples in it. The recipe says to simmer for 25-30 minutes or until the cereal is cooked - well when is that?

Did I get the wrong kind of rice cereal? Where can I find the right kind?

It is not cereal. You are

It is not cereal. You are making cereal out of brown rice. So buy regular brown rice, but it will take more like 45-60 minutes to cook.

Are you sure?

Why does the recipe say to use "brown rice cereal"? How do you know I'm just supposed to use brown rice?

My husband, who has heard of everything food wise, hadn't heard of hot brown rice cereal. I was browsing the organic section of our supermarket and there it was, looking a bit like curly, thin oatmeal. I got it because I heard the shakes good be unappetizing but I may not use it as I don't find this to be true.

Well I don't mind the shakes...

...but I need some more variety and I thought the apples and the cinammon sounded really good! Also I want something that I can take to work with me on the days that my shift starts really early; I like to eat breakfast at work.

I have looked in several grocery stores and could not find brown rice cereal.

Do you think it's ok to use the brown rice cereal for babies?

You're not going to find

You're not going to find this in your regular grocery store, unless they have a health food section. Try Whole Foods they are real good about carrying alternatives on cereals that aren't available in the traditional grocery store. Or you could try a local health food store, if there isn't a Whole Foods near you.

Thanks,

There isn't a Whole Foods that's convenient to me and I don't think I'm going to buy the brown rice cereal anyway because I don't intend to stay on the diet past this Saturday. I'm on the third day and I've gained a pound so I don't plan to stay on the diet more than the initial seven days. I guess my real question is whether or not it's ok to use the baby cereal that I already bought and used to make four servings of the cereal.

Well that's another thing, I don't really know what to look for. It is organic brown rice cereal. I will look at the ingredients and see if anything jumps out at me but I don't really know what's ok and what's not.

Hi Kait,

I guess sugar and anything that's difficult to pronounce would be not okay.

This Post interests me because I Love cereal. But I couldn't find the recipe in the recipe section. Would someone please tell me where it is or republish?

I also didn't mind the shakes at all, but variety is important, too.

Thanks! Patti R
