Love this! I used granola for the cereal and didn't add any honey since I was afraid it would make it a bit too sweet for our tastes. It really tastes like a banana split! A teeny bit of chocolate syrup would be good too :) Thanks for posting such a delicious and nutritious breakfast/snack recipe.

It was pretty good. I used Crispix cereal because that's all I had, and I wish I would have had something more solid (i.e. cheerios, granola, etc.) The honey and pineapple add great flavor to the yogurt!

Put it this way: My normally passive 4 year old just realized his glass was empty and cried! lol... yummy breakfast and well-balanced. I used some generic Muesli cereal that had dates and nuts and oats in it.. good way to get all of your food groups (except the veggies, of course) in one shot! Thanks for sharing!

I had this while doing my science homework- supposedly,at least. The homework got done a lot slower than usual. Had to concentrate on the fruity-creamy-crunchiness. yumm-mmy!

Sounds really yummy--but just wanted to add a note. Strawberries are also not recommended for children under age 1 (they are a potential allergen). Thanks for the recipe!
