It's a pity that cereal, which can be such an incredible comfort meal, is available in so many types that do absolutely nothing for us nutritionally since there are so many of those varieties on the market now.
In point of fact, many of them just overload us with sugar and send us crashing around an hour after consuming possibly three times the amount of the serving size that we had intended.
However, there is likely to be a healthy cereal that tastes good and has a pleasant flavor; in order to locate this cereal, you will need to look in more places and read a great deal of packaging. Therefore, we performed a lot of the heavy work for you and selected a number of different cereal selections that would satisfy both your taste buds and your nutritionist.
Only cereals that contain less than 250 calories and 8 grams of sugar per serving, as well as at least 3 grams of fiber and 5 grams of protein, were considered for inclusion in this list. Our objective was to ensure that you remain satisfied until noon comes around. And we came within striking distance.
Granola that's made with honey and almonds by Bear Naked.
Protein: 6 grams
Sugar: 5 grams
Fiber: 3 grams
Calories: 150 per 1/4 cup
Granolas present a challenge since a serving size that is sufficiently satiating may generally fit in the palm of your hand, but Bear Naked is one brand that justifies its place on our list. The honey almond type not only satisfies all of the nutritional standards on our list, including having a label with quality ingredients, but it also has a taste that goes well with a cup of yogurt and some fresh berries. The energizing breakfast parfait is ready and waiting for us.
Cereal with Almond Flakes
Protein: 8 grams
Sugar: 6 grams
Fiber: 6 grams
Calories: 210 per 3/4 cup
It's safe to say that this is one of the most earthy cereals on the list, but it still manages to avoid the land of cardboard, so we're OK with it. In addition to having a bit more protein and fiber than our standards need, it also has a list of ingredients that is eager to please, so it succeeds in every nutritional area that we evaluated. Everything is natural, easy to pronounce, and beneficial to your health. Feel free to start your day by adding a few blueberries to this bowl, and then getting to work on your breakfast.
Great Grains Post Cereal in a Crunchy Pecan Cluster
Protein: 5 grams
Sugar: 8 grams
Fiber: 5 grams
Calories: 210 per 3/4 cup
At long last, a sweet, subtly crunchy mixture of flakes, almonds, and granola clusters that don't contain an excessive amount of sugar but nevertheless deliver on the promise of its name. The crunch pecan kind of Great Grains cereal not only meets our needs for protein but also goes above and above them in terms of fiber content. Although the calories are a little bit more than average, the portion size is not anything to laugh at.
Cinnamon Puffins Baked by Barbara
Protein: 3 grams
Sugar: 5 grams
Fiber: 5 grams
Calories: 90 per 2/3 cup
Hooray for Barbara's Puffins breakfast cereal! To tell you the truth, all of the tastes of this one are excellent; nevertheless, we chose cinnamon since it has a little higher concentration of protein and fiber than the other varieties.
Although there is still some deficiency in the protein level, the very low number of calories per serving implies that you may pour yourself an especially large bowl to make up for it. To our ears, this seems like a fairly good offer.
Kashi GOLEAN Crisp! Cereal with Cinnamon Crumbles
Protein: 11 grams
Sugar: 9 grams
Fiber: 9 grams
Calories: 180 calories per 3/4 cup
Kashi, you have some holy staying power. How is it possible for one serving of cereal to have so much protein and fiber when it is just 3/4 of a cup? We are going to speculate that it has anything to do with the long list of substances that are used to enhance the grain mixture. Although we don't really like this intricate aspect, we do welcome the fact that the cereal falls short of our sugar goal by one gram while excelling in all of the other nutritious areas.
Quaker Oatmeal Squares with Brown Sugar and
Protein: 6 grams
Sugar: 9 grams
Fiber: 5 grams
Calories: 210 per cup
When milk is added to the mix, Quaker's sweet and crunchy biscuits transform into the ideal texture of exquisite softness. This is where Quaker shines on this list. The fact that they are made with oats makes them a hearty and satisfying option; moreover, the high protein and fiber content ensure that they more than hold their own.
It's possible that there is one gram of sugar more than necessary, and the list of ingredients is a little too lengthy and relies on chemicals for enrichment, but hey, we all have our faults, right?
Honey Toasted Oat Kashi Heart to Heart Cereal with Honey
Protein: 3 grams
Sugar: 5 grams
Fiber: 4 grams
Calories: 120 calories per 3/4 cup
Guys, it doesn't get much better than Kashi. It's the best there is. This version of Honey Nut Cheerios is made with nutritious ingredients and has very little sugar, yet it still has the same satisfying crunch and sweet honey taste as the original.
In terms of the amount of protein it contains, it falls a bit short of expectations; nevertheless, given that each serving has just 120 calories, you could easily increase the quantity without risking going overboard with your morning meal. The phrase "guilt-free seconds" has my praise.
Honey Clusters made by Fiber One
Protein: 4 grams
Sugar: 9 grams
Fiber: 10 grams
Calories: 170 per cup
It's up to Fiber One to bring everything you need to know about dietary fiber to the table. When it comes to the amount of protein in this option, we do make a little sacrifice; however, the satiating effect of 10 grams of fiber more than makes up for it.
It also indicates that the unpleasant spikes and dips in blood sugar levels brought on by eating two grams of sugar more than the recommended amount won't always occur. Therefore, pour yourself a cup and savor the sweetness of the honey.
Apple Special K Nourish Special K Nourish Cereal with Raspberry and Almonds
Protein: 5 grams
Sugar: 10 grams
Fiber: 4 grams
Calories: 210 per cup
The packaging of Special K was updated, and it now includes more accurate nutritional information. A hearty cup's worth of this newly developed combination of fruits, nuts, and grains does an excellent job of providing you with the protein and fiber that you need.
It has a sugar level that is two grams more than what we consider to be optimal, but its siblings have a far higher tolerance for sweetness. If Red Berries was always your jam, then you should think of this one as your new standard option.
Cheerios
Protein: 3 grams
Sugar: 1 gram
Fiber: 3 grams
Calories: 100 per cup
This famous treat from your youth is one of the very few items that your parents let you have even though they knew it would raise your sugar intake. It also only contains six components, five of which are easy to both pronounce and picture, so it's not too bad of a recipe overall.
Although it is on the lower end of the spectrum when it comes to the quantity of protein it contains, it is an excellent source of dietary fiber. You shouldn't expect this one to keep you full for many hours, but you also shouldn't feel bad about enjoying it as a way to relive a fond experience from your youth.
Cereal called Quaker Life
Protein: 3 grams
Sugar: 6 grams
Fiber: 2 grams
Calories: 120 per 3/4 cup
This breakfast cereal very literally sustains our lives. It has a singular, memorable, and undeniably crave-worthy texture, with just the proper amount of sweetness to go along with it.
Even while the amount of protein and fiber in this morning's mainstay is not particularly impressive, consuming two servings of it ensures that you won't go over the 250-calorie line even if you eat it for two days in a row. You, Quakers, have such a good understanding of us.
