Breakfast is hands down the best meal of the day (if you don’t agree then we can’t be friends). I shake my head in disbelief when I think back to when I refused to eat a morning meal, now I wouldn’t be able to leave the house without it and although I mostly favour porridge for it’s slow release energy, the latest releases from Jordans have me converted.
My love of Country Crisp breakfast cereal was instant, some years ago when I was given a box of the strawberry variety. It became dangerous to have around as it’s just so more-ish and the second I set eyes on the new Super Berry variety I knew the box was doomed. Crispy, crunchy golden clusters of oats mixed up with blackcurrants, cranberries and blueberries with no added salt, a high fibre content and no GM ingredients the creamy and sweet taste of the oats is contrasted perfectly with the tartness of the berries. Forget milk, I think this is best eaten by the handful from the box (although if youi do want to eat it in a more traditional way, hot milk makes the perfect Autumn morning treat). Oh granola, so addictive!
For those who don’t have time for a sit down breakfast or like me, have a snacking addiction then the Absolute Nut luxury bars are for you. Jam packed with almonds, hazelnuts and pecan pieces these are irresistable and pack a powerful punch. Substatinal enough for a morning meal and easily portable I’ll be keeping one of these in my work bag for days when I’m running late or get mid-morning/afternoon/any time munchies. Again with no added salt, lots of fibre and nothing artifical you could do far worse in a cereal bar!
You’ll find both products stocked in Tesco and Waitrose and whilst they may seem more expensive than other products on the market, they are SO good and so luxurious (and a heck of a lot cheaper than a hastily grabbed latte and muffin en route…better for you, too!)
Are you a breakfast fan? What’s your favourite way to start the day?

I’m one of the people who avoid breakfast. It just makes me feel ill and gets to my tummy whatever I eat, yum! x
I’m also a relatively recent breakfast convert! Cereal all the way…

ah this is possibly the best breakfast cereal ever! Breakfast is definitely the best meal of the day, just wish I could get out of bed a little earlier so I could actually enjoy it!
Oh man those nut bars look amazing! Feel like they have a similar cereal variety that’s totally awesome….:)
Love love love Jordans cereals, although I have to leave the berries to soak in soya milk for a while to rehydrate them, can’t be doing with them all dried out! Also slightly addicted to all the flavoured porridges from Oat So Simple and Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference.

Looks great,I love my brekkie š
ive never understood how people could skip breakfast, even deep into.my ED I always breakfast even if it was just a handful of branflakes or 1/2 an apple
i have to admit i dont really like cluster type cereal i prefer mushy soft cereals like weetabix as a matter of fact i have weetabix for breakfast everyday and would happily eat a bowl for breakfast, lunch and dinner as breakfast is my favourite meal too š
its a shame they werent cheaper however i get jordans original crunchy bars from ASDA and there only Ā£1.90ish for a box of 8 or 9 which is bargin considering how moreish they are š
Haga great post..love country crisp..but i actually end up snacking on that late at night watching TV…love a good slice of toast for me in the morning!!
