Introduction

Great hot breakfast cereal for one. You could also convert this to make a big batch in a slow cooker. The flavor isn't in your face coconut, it is subtle. Combined with the brown sugar flavor of the dates I think it rocks. I did not include salt in the nutritional info as it is optional. If you prefer a more intense coconut flavor, you could increase the amount of coconut milk and decrease the water. Great hot breakfast cereal for one.

Ingredients

    1/4 cup Lite Coconut Milk
    1/4 cup Cracked Wheat- Dry
    1/2 cup Water (may need a little extra)
    3 pitted Dates, thinly sliced
    pinch of salt, optional

Directions

Makes 1 serving
1.) Mix all ingredients in a small pot.
2.) Cover and cook over low heat.
3.) Stir often and add extra water as needed to keep it from sticking to the bottom.
4.) Cook until wheat is tender. (Often it does not take me the typical 30-45 minutes for the wheat to cook, so check the wheat for doneness starting 15 minutes in).
