Crunch Berries is (are?) probably one of my favorite cereals of all time.

The crunch, the gorgeous colors, and the amazing cereal milk they produce are 1,000% irresistible to me. First tip of the day: recognize your triggers!

Ever since my surgery, I have been working with a nutritionist to help me lose the 60+lbs I gained b/c of medications, complete lack of hormone function, and, hi!, brain surgery.

I teeter-totter between the girl who does everything to lose weight and the girl who thinks life is too short not to enjoy the things you love. That's why I adapt my favorite indulgent recipes into something I can enjoy.

The Original Crunch Berries Milkshake

This original cereal milk con-concoction came from my favorite burger bar in town. Everything on their menu is divine, but the shining star is their thick and rich Crunch Berries Milkshake.

Sweet vanilla ice cream, rich whole milk, and colorful crunch berries cereal is blended to make a masterful, gut-busting milkshake served with a heap of nostalgia.

Life is too short to miss delicacies like this! Sometimes you need to start your day off with a Crunch Berries Smoothie and end it with Fruity Pebbles Cupcakes, amirite?!?!?

90% of the time I am on a pretty strict meal plan when it comes to my diet, but that doesn't mean recipes have to be boring or lack flavor.

These Crunch Berries Smoothies are full of:

Frozen bananas
Vanilla protein powder
milk of choice
Greek Yogurt
Crunch Berries

How to Make a Crunch Berries Banana Smoothie

I used unsweetened vanilla almond milk, but use whole milk if you want to! Frozen bananas take the place of ice cream for me, but they don't have to for you. I also added in a scoop of vanilla protein powder to amp up the nutrition, but you can always leave that out.

I will say having a high powered blender is key when it comes to breaking down the bananas in this smoothie, but I also just cut mine in half before I freeze them so they're in much bigger chunks. Also, this smoothie is super simple to put together, but watch out for those crunch berries because you'll want to keep adding them.

BUT....

If you’re not careful you can add too much cereal which will then soak up all of the milk and become a thick soggy mess; however, if you like to wait until the cereal is all soggy before you eat it then...more power to you!
