WW Cream of Wheat Cereal with Spiced Fruit Ambrosia Recipe
An easy, healthy and delicious way to begin your day!
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 2 cups skim milk
- 1-1/2 ounces uncooked cream of wheat cereal
- 1 cup canned fruit cocktail, in fruit juice (no sugar added), drained
- Sweetener of choice (if desired)
- Dash ground ginger
- Dash ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons shredded coconut, toasted
Instructions
- Pour the milk into the top of a double boiler. Place over boiling water and cook until hot.
- Slowly stir in the cereal and cook until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. (I was able to skip the double boiler and cook over low heat in a heavy bottomed saucepan.)
- Remove from the heat and drain juice from the fruit cocktail into the cereal. Add sweetener, ginger and cinnamon and stir to combine.
- Place half of the fruit cocktail into the bottom of each of two small cereal bowls and then spoon the cereal over each, dividing evenly.
- Top each with a teaspoon of toasted coconut.
