In the confusion from misplacing things in our home due to a
reorganization of belongings, a nearly-full Costco-sized open box
of Cheerios was hidden under something else. Thinking it had been
consumed, we opened a SECOND huge box when my kid announced he
wanted Cheerios for breakfast this morning. Then we discovered the
already-open box.

Both are fresh, but there's no way we'd consume all of those Cheerios
before they go stale, so I'm wondering if there's something creative I
can do. These are plain Cheerios, not honey-nut or other flavor.

So I look online for recipes, and find that the Cheerios website
actually has a page devoted to this: http://www.cheerios.com/recipes

Not much there looks appetizing although some look interesting. Some
seem as if they'd taste like sawdust, like the recipe about grinding
Cheerios into flour to make pancakes (that's just weird, they start
out as flour, and then you grind them back down? why not just
buy some oat flour?). The lemon squares might be good. The pork
meatballs are interesting but not practical if the Cheerios get
disgustingly soggy -- anything I'd make would need to have a short
shelf-life to consume as leftovers.

Has anyone done anything interesting or tasty with Cheerios?
