Blueberry-Orange Bread

"A little different version of the original in an effort to eat a little healthier. I got this recipe out of the Betty Crocker Healthy Heart Cookbook. The note from the recipe reads, "Besides eating cereal for breakfast, adding cereal to recipes is a good way to get the extra nutrition that the fortification, fiber and whole grain cereals provide". Make sure you take into consideration the cooling time if you're making this last minute. Since the slices are so thin, I left off the topping so I could eat a little bit more. After the fact, I realized I put in pretty frozen blue berries. It ended up ok, just had to cook my loaf about 10-15 minutes longer."

I love to cook and try new recipes. My husband is a great guinea pig! He will always eat what I make, regardless of how it tastes...I strive to make it well each time though. Could never live up to has grandma's cooking, but I try...and apparently I'm getting closer to hers every day!
