Your Hot Breakfast Awaits…Thanks, Once Again, to Your Slow Cooker

It’s cold outside!!!  How can you get a few more winks, warm snuggles or minutes on your yoga mat on a workday morning? Or start your weekend with a ready-made hot breakfast at home?  Take a few minutes the night before and put this cereal together in the slow cooker then wake up to an aromatic, delicious, and hot gluten-free breakfast.

Now go fetch your slow cooker and begin.

Place all in slow cooker and stir well.
