The raisins are good sources of fiber, too. Try to find the brands that
don't coat the raisins in sugar.

Lots of breakfast cereals can be made from whole grains. My co-op offers
wheat berries, cracked wheat (sometimes called bulgur), several
pre-packaged varieties of oatmeal and multi-grain cereals, and even
oatmeal-like flakes made from barley or rye. I usually cook a few
servings at once, eat one, and plate the rest for other mornings.
Whether it's sweet or savory on a given day is up to me.
You can also find whole-grain breads, English muffins, and bagels.
They're probably not as good for you as whole-grain cereals, but they
certainly are more convenient.
