Grain-based Mini Meal or Snack Ideas

• A bagel topped with peanut butter before you begin your day combines carbohydrates with protein and some fat to keep you fueled all morning long.
  
• For a tasty alternative to milk, stir low-fat yogurt into ready-to-eat cereal for a breakfast that's ready in less than one minute.
  
• Wrap thinly sliced cheese, salsa and black beans in a wheat tortilla for homemade Southwestern "take out." Warm in microwave.
  
• Stow pretzels, crackers, breadsticks and ready-to-eat cereals in your briefcase, desk drawer or gym bag for an energy-packed snack that's ready when you are.
  
• A slice of Cranberry Raisin Bread with a cup of hot tea is a tasty indulgence to enjoy during the cold winter months.
