I just put them out for the birds.
But a cheesecake base options would be good if I wasn't dieting!

I've read about using them like bread crumbs or mixing them with cheese as a savoury topping, but I've never done either as DH always empties the pack!I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.0

From the Goode Kitchen book by Shirley Goode. This recipe also uses up the heat from the oven's evening meal overnight so very Old style!
Meringue Crunchies
(makes 30 - 36)
2 egg whites
5oz/150g caster sugar
6oz/175g crunch (last of the cereal, broken biscuit, muesli, nuts whatever you have)
Beat the egg whites with the sugar for 3 mins with an electric whisk until really thick. (It will take longer if done by hand) Fold in the crunchy bits. Line 3 baking sheets with foil and dot with teaspoons of the mixture, leaving room for them to spread. Place the baking sheets in the oven before you turn it out. Shut the door and turn off the heat and leave the cookies for at least 8 hours (overnight is perfect) Don't open the door until morning! Result very yummy cookies!Our days are happier when we give people a bit of our heart rather than a piece of our mind.

Ooooh Catznine, I know what I'm doing tonight after dinner
Thanks xxWhether you think you can or you can’t, you’re probably right ~ Henry Ford0 -
This is how we use the bran flake crumbs in our house (I would imagine most cereals would work):
- in place of some of the oats for flapjacks
- in place of some of the oats in making muesli/granola-style cereal
- I soak them in hot water with dried fruit to make bran muffins
Love and compassion to all x0 -

Nope, sorry not for me.
I used to have braces on my teeth and the crumbs used to get stuck in the wires etc. Easier to avoid and now I just don't like it.
But .... waste not want not etc
I'm going to try Catznine's idea tonight. Yummy! Whether you think you can or you can’t, you’re probably right ~ Henry Ford0 -
I tend to throw the crumbs away or eat them....like the other 99.99% of the populationProfit=sanity
