Hot cereal breakfast cups

As the air turns colder, I turn to my comfy clothes and cozy blankets. This signals the end of the warm weather season, but the promise of change and new beginnings. I think no matter how old I get, I will think of September as back to school.

My favorite stand-by for easy breakfast was oatmeal. I love a simple, filling, healthy breakfast that's warm and cozy and I can feel good about eating.

I've realized in my hurried last couple of weeks that I need something extra special to grab and go in a few easy steps.

I had Bob's Red Mill Creamy Buckwheat hot cereal handy and tried something new. I made it according to the instructions and then added frozen wild blueberries and cinnamon. I gently stirred it and popped into a muffin tin and then into the freezer.

Just thaw in the fridge the night before or in the microwave the day of and add any other fixin's you'd like. I added maple syrup and pecans. It feels so decadent!
