* I often substitute other kinds of fruit here, Raspberries are becoming a new favorite, but strawberries, bananas, and even chopped up apple with a little cinnamon goes great!

**Also, if you are not very concerned with calorie content, a couple semi-sweet chocolate chips or crushed Marcona Almonds add great flavor/texture
