I'm not sure what toasted wheat flakes are unless you mean cereal and I don't think you do. However, long ago when I was newly married I used a recipe I found on the box of Shredded Wheat cereal. If I recall correctly, it said to soak two of the 'pillows' in milk and then add to the beef. I think it was good and I'm not sure why I didn't keep using it, probably wanted to experiment.

If Shredded Wheat is still around, I may try it again.
