breakfast concoction

yes - i am calling it a concoction...
i have a box of cream of wheat that i just have not been able to find the motivation to finish... i find its lack of fiber and overall blandness great when you are suffering from a sour stomache but it just seems like empty calories and carbs at other times...
so i have been trying to find ways to change it up some - and here is what i found in my pantry to add to the grain - brown rice...  which i dont really like - i keep trying to apply the jamie oliver approach to steaming the race and maybe i would like it more but not so much.... so i boiled the heck out of it and threw it in with the cream of wheat...   bulgar wheat ...  which i do like but you can only eat so much taboule salad so this is a good use of the grain....  mixes with some dried cranberries - a purchase my mom makes whenever she visits that i dont find a use for - so add it to the cereal... and walnuts - i am always buying walnuts,  cinamon, nutmeg and vanilla...
we shall see how it tastes
