Given the option I would usually have a cold breakfast on the trail. I usually wake up hungry and don't really want the hassle of dealing with the stove - even if it is as simple boiling water for oatmeal.
 Last year, I bought a bulk container of this Mountain House meal called "Granola with milk and blueberries." This stuff is great but not all that cheap. The bulk size retails for about $34 and has 27 servings. That, of course, is a serving size for a mouse. Most people including myself will have two servings. A two serving helping will cost you about $2.50 if you buy it in bulk (a little cheaper if you buy it online like here) and will cost you about $4 if you buy a single serving package.
This stuff is not rocket science. I'm not a creative guy in the kitchen but I can figure this out. Today I went down to the store and picked up the necessary ingredients. All I got was dried blueberries, bulk granola and dry milk. A little experimentation in the kitchen and I have a recipe that I like better than Mountain House.
 I chose the freeze dried blueberries called "Just Blueberries". They almost instantly take on the water and end up soft and tasty.
Next, I got the standard Carnation powdered milk
 Finally, I got some bulk granola. I chose one that had some strawberry flavor in it but you could do just about anything you want.
Here are the portions I found worked for me:
- 1/3 cup powdered milk (enough for 8 oz of milk)
- 2/3 cup granola (could go to a cup here if you want)
- 1/3 cup of dried blueberries (you could go less to make them last)
This is enough for 1 breakfast. I package each breakfast in a sandwich bag.
On the trail, dump contents into your bowl and add 8 ounces of fresh, cold water. Stir. Enjoy!
