I'm on a diet, so I used skim milk instead of whole milk. It was still very creamy and delicious.

I'm not a fan of raisins, so I used cranberries instead. It was a great substitute!

This cereal is a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra spices next time.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the almonds for sunflower seeds. It was still delicious!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cereal turned out too mushy. I think I'll cook it for a shorter amount of time next time.
