Strawberries and cream cereal with chocolate chips

Let's talk breakfast. I hate weekday breakfasts. On weekdays, breakfast is more about cramming food into my mouth like a starved velociraptor than it is about enjoying home cooked food. I am therefore likely to make a week's worth of breakfasts at a time and all the better if it can be done in 5 minutes. This recipe achieves the desired time restrictions, taste, nutrition, and isn't high calorie.

(This isn't very picturesque. Maybe if I put it in a mason jar.)

Ingredients:
5 cups almond milk (or your choice dairy)
Just under 1 cup cream of wheat cereal
2 TBS sugar
1 tsp vanilla
Sprinkle of salt
1 pint strawberries, hulled and sliced
Handful of mini chocolate chips
Scoop of yogurt (optional)

Directions:
Simmer together the milk, Cream of Wheat, sugar, vanilla, and salt until it starts to thicken. Dump in the strawberries and simmer two more minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool down and thicken more.

If eating right away, scoop some into a bowl, stir in yogurt, and top with a few chocolate chips. If eating later, refrigerate without the yogurt or chocolate chips, and in the morning, microwave a bowl full with a splash of water to thin it back out. The yogurt doesn't really affect the flavor or texture but the protein it packs will help you stay full longer - a necessity for those of us whose shift of running around like a maniac lasts 7 hours before a 20 minute lunch break.
