Breakfast is often referred to as “the most important meal of the day,” and it really is. Your first meal of the day does exactly what it means: it disrupts the empty stomach you left overnight while you slept. Eating in the morning will give you energy and focus as you start your day, so don’t even think about skipping it, or you’ll end up feeling sluggish and regretful. Whether you are short on time, lacking in cooking skills, or simply in the mood for a delicious breakfast, you can never go wrong with a bowl of breakfast cereal.
Steps
Eat cold cereal

Pour the cereal into the bowl. The amount of cereal you pour depends entirely on your taste. A large, generous bowl of cereal can keep you full for hours, and a small bowl can be a great snack. Remember not to overfill the cereal, as you will still need room for the milk.
- If you’re health-conscious or aren’t sure what the appropriate serving size is, check the nutrition label on the side of the box. Recommended serving sizes will be listed there.
- After emptying the cereal, make sure you close the bag or box completely so that the cereal doesn’t spoil. You can also put leftover cereals in a container or store cereals to extend their shelf life.

Add milk. When it comes to this step, everyone has personal preferences. Start pouring slowly, until the cereal floats a little. If you want the cereal to be just slightly moist and retain its crispiness, pour in a small amount. If you like to eat cereal as a soup and slurp leftover milk in the bottom of the bowl, feel free to add more milk!
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/39/Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Eat- a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/39/Eat-a-Bowl-of- Cereal-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Consider adding additional food. Some people add a bit of fruit to their cereal bowl, like chopped bananas, strawberry slices, or blueberries. If you want the cereal for a bit of a surprise, add some cinnamon or sugar. Be creative! You can add whatever you want to cereals, especially if they have a mild flavor.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/41/Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-4-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Eat- a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-4-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/41/Eat-a-Bowl-of- Cereal-Step-4-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-4-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Eat at your own pace. This is an important issue of eating grains. If you eat the cereal fairly quickly, the cereal will still have some crunch. If you take your time, savoring each bite, the cereal will gradually soften. Eat as slow or as fast as you like. Just make sure you’re enjoying the cereal bowl.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/74/Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-5-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Eat- a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-5-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/74/Eat-a-Bowl-of- Cereal-Step-5-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-5-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Drink milk from the bottom of the bowl. After finishing the cereal, there may still be some milk left in the bottom of the bowl, especially if you pour a lot. No need to waste this delicious and cereal-flavored liquid. You have several options for dealing with that milk.
- You can hold the bowl with two hands and drink milk.
- You can add a little cereal to eat with the remaining milk.
Eat hot cereal
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/1/13/Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-6-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Eat- a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-6-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/1/13/Eat-a-Bowl-of- Cereal-Step-6-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-6-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Cook hot cereal. Whether you’ve chosen to make oat porridge, wheat porridge (also known as farina), cornmeal, or another hot cereal, they’ll all have specific cooking instructions. Make sure you read the packaging that came with it for cooking instructions. When it comes to hot cereal, there are often options for those who love to cook and options for those who don’t want to put in a lot of effort to make. [1] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/f/f6/Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-7.jpg/v4-460px-Eat-a-Bowl- of-Cereal-Step-7.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/f/f6/Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-7.jpg/ v4-728px-Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-7.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Add any additional food you desire. After cooking the hot cereal, you can add some interesting flavors and extra food to it. For the oatmeal, you can add things like brown sugar, nuts, fruit, or even chocolate chips. Add butter to wheat porridge or cornmeal for a delicious breakfast, or even put an egg in it. Adding a pat of peanut butter to hot cereal is a great option, as the heat from the cereal will warm the peanut butter, causing it to melt and blend into the cereal. Adding cinnamon and sugar to any hot cereal option makes for a sweet, delicious breakfast. [2] X Research Source

Eat cereal. Let the cereal cool before eating, because burning your mouth will make your day start off uncomfortably. If you’re eager to eat, blow each bite out before putting it in your mouth. If you’ve added delicious mixes and toppings, make sure to stir them well in the hot cereal to enjoy them to the last bite.
- Hot cereal can stick to the edge of the bowl, so make sure you scrape the spoon along the sides to get it all done.
Select ingredients
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/69/Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-9.jpg/v4-460px-Eat-a-Bowl- of-Cereal-Step-9.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/6/69/Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-9.jpg/ v4-728px-Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-9.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose cereal. If you’ve ever walked along the breakfast cereal aisle, you know that the options are endless. Different cereals will give you a very varied breakfast. Some are sweet and packed with sugar, while others are healthier and packed with whole grains and fiber. Not all grains are created equal, so you should learn them.
- Colorful, sweet cereal that almost tastes like dessert for breakfast. These cereals include Fruit Loops, Lucky Charms, Cookie Crisps, Trix, and Cinnamon Toast Crunch. While these kids-loved cereals certainly taste good, they’re full of sugar and should be eaten in moderation. [3] X Research Sources
- If you want to be healthier, look for cereals that are high in fiber and list the whole grain ingredient first. The higher protein content is a plus, because it will keep you fuller for longer. Total, Cheerios, Life, Kix, and Raisin Bran are all great options.
- Don’t forget to consider hot cereals. These include oatmeal, cornmeal, wheat porridge, rice, quinoa, and many more! Most come in a variety of breakfast flavors, but you can also choose plain flavored ones and add your own mixes and toppings. [4] X Research Sources
- Granpa and muesli are also healthy, filling you up. You can learn how to make muesli and granpa here!
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/8d/Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-10.jpg/v4-460px-Eat-a-Bowl- of-Cereal-Step-10.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/8d/Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-10.jpg/ v4-728px-Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-10.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose milk. Just like cereal, you have a lot to choose from. Between the different types of cow’s milk, lactose-free milk, and sugar-free milk, you’ll likely find something that pairs perfectly with the cereal of your choice.
- Cow’s milk is the standard milk most people think of when they hear the word. The varieties you’ll see in regular grocery stores are whole milk, 2% milk, 1% milk, and skim milk. Whole milk has a richer taste with 3.25% fat. Both 2% and 1% fat milk have reduced fat percentages (to 2% and 1%, respectively). Skim milk has 0% fat, and has the least flavor, but also has the fewest calories. You can choose different types of cow’s milk depending on your personal preferences and diet. [5] X Research Sources
- Lactose-free milk is perfect for anyone who has an upset stomach after drinking milk. Many people are lactose intolerant, and cannot digest the sugar in milk. Lactose-free milk is regular milk that has been combined with the enzyme lactase, which helps digest lactose. This prevents digestive problems arising from lactose intolerance. [6] X Research Source
- Plant-based milk is another great option for those who don’t like the taste of cow’s milk, follow a vegan diet, or simply want something different. Almond milk is the most popular plant-based milk, and it even comes in different flavors like vanilla and chocolate. Coconut milk, soy milk, flaxseed milk, cashew milk and several others are also on the market as plant-based milk alternatives. [7] X Research Sources

Choose some other complementary foods. One way to add flavor, texture or health benefits to breakfast cereals is to add a little something. Fruits, like blueberries and bananas, will add a variety of beneficial vitamins and nutrients. Adding nuts can give cereal a delicious crunch, as well as adding protein. Adding a slice of nut butter, like peanut butter or almond butter, can add healthy fats and proteins. Cinnamon can help add flavor to breakfast and also has the benefit of being virtually calorie-free. [8] X Research Sources
Cereal meal arrangement

Select bowl. You can always get a medium-sized cereal bowl, but there are other options. If you wake up hungry, you’ll want to find the largest bowl you can. Large mixing bowls may be suitable. If you’re not very hungry, you can use a smaller bowl, such as the one used for side salads.
- Feel free to get creative and use coffee mugs, containers or other containers to eat your cereal. Don’t just limit yourself to the bowl.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/4c/Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-13.jpg/v4-460px-Eat-a-Bowl- of-Cereal-Step-13.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/4c/Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-13.jpg/ v4-728px-Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-13.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose a spoon. The spoon you choose can have a big impact on your cereal-eating experience. A smaller spoon means the smaller the piece, the longer it will take you to eat the cereal. Eating slowly can help prevent you from overeating, so a small scoop is great for anyone on a diet or just looking to snack. On the contrary, a larger spoon means larger pieces. If you’re hungry and ready to wallow in cereal, grab a large spoon.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/40/Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-14.jpg/v4-460px-Eat-a-Bowl- of-Cereal-Step-14.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/40/Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-14.jpg/ v4-728px-Eat-a-Bowl-of-Cereal-Step-14.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose a seat to eat. For a more formal cereal-eating experience, sit at the dining room or kitchen table. You can use a dish cloth, spread a napkin in your lap and “enjoy” a proper meal. For a more comforting breakfast, eat your cereal in front of the TV, while you’re working on the computer, or even in bed!
- If you’re really short on time, pour cereal and milk into a travel mug. Carry a plastic spoon and eat your cereal when you’re in the car, on the bus, or walking to school.
