Ever have cereal for dinner?

When I work late at the baseball park and won't something different to eat besides a hot dog, hamburger, and pizza. Then I eat cereal for dinner.
 
My DD (16) loves to have cereal for dinner!
I don't feel like the greatest mom when I let her do that, but hey...she's fed and she's happy :confused3
Why mess that up with my stuff?

I have cereal for dinner once in a great while and it's usually when I'm sick.
 
Yep, we do cereal for breakfast every so often. We are busy and on the go alot, and during baseball/softball season our time at home is very limited. So in order for us to eat together it has to be a fast and easy dinner. We like it and it doesn't hurt to have it every once in a while.
 

Oh yea. Eventually I figured out that every time I did that I woke up with a headache the next morning though. :sad1: It is a great dinner.

I have class on Tuesday nights and am always too tired to cook.

Usually I do a crock pot thing, but tonight, it is cocoa puffs.

I feel like such a bad mom!


:rotfl: I went to the store to get stuff for chili and some other stuff and I was sure eyeing the Cocoa Krispies! :hyper: That will make my late night snack. Breakfast for dinner is a wonderful thing!
 
I don't feel satisfied with a sweet dinner, myself. If I don't feel like cooking, I have some cheese and crackers- or cheese and toast, or a scrambled egg over toast, with a piece of fruit and maybe a glass of tomato juice. For a youngster I'd offer the same, or a PBJ sandwich and some canned soup, or some canned ravioli. An occasional meal of cereal and milk, especially with fruit, would not have the child malnourished. It's nice in general to have the recommended vegetables and proteins.

We have had strawberry shortcake for dinner when local strawberries are in- since my mother used to fix this. Actual shortcake, strawberries, milk poured over. But I have to have something non-sweet too and will fix soup or something so I feel satisfied.

Cereal... it's not just for breakfast anymore. Isn't that a line from a famous speech right out of the history books or something? I think Abe Lincoln or Betsy Ross said it. I could be wrong but I don't think so because that rarely happens.
 
Sometimes cereal is the best for dinner. A nice bowl of Captain Crunch Berries goes down oh so well after a hard days work :)
 
Cereal is good any time of the day. I happen to be eating a bowl of Cocoa Puffs right now :teeth: .

I also only drink Cocoa Puff milk. I don't like milk any other way.
 
Hubby and I will do cereal for supper once every couple of months. I don't feel guilty. Growing up, one of my favorite suppers was when my mom would be short on groceries and short on time so we had bacon and eggs with toast for supper. Things are so hectic in the mornings, you don't have time to enjoy a really nice cooked breakfast; why not have it for supper.
 
If I had the choice I would eat cereal everyday for every meal! With so many choices out there, it would never get boring. I too had a stressful job, lived alone and really had no desire to cook, not even a microwave meal.........thank God for my trusty box of Captain Crunch!! LOL :cool1:
