Couldn't be easier. Has a nice mix of flavors. Next time, I will use whole almonds as the sliced almonds are more like large crumbs than pieces of cereal mix to pick up to eat, as this is a finger food ... to-gos like this are to be eaten without a spoon. I used half raisins and half dried cranberries for the half cup dried fruit.

I think that it sounds wonderful but I don't think that my kids would eat it because there are too many "hard" foods in it like the banana chips and almonds. And by the way, per 100 grams, there are 10 grams of sugar in raw apple, 12 grams in raw banana, 15 grams of sugar in Thompson grapes, 15 grams in sliced mango, 9 grams in pineapple. Fruit comes with sugar.

There are 10 grams of sugar, PER SERVING. This in not healthy at all, and would be a horrile breakfast. Give this to your child, and all they get is a sugar high. There are much better and tasteier ways to get a high fiber breakfast.
