At the bottom of the box of shredded wheat squares, there's quite a bit of 'loose' shredded wheat; it used to be in cereal form and is now just loose. What interesting recipes or dish modifications can you suggest? One idea was a sort of crisp/struedel topping, (mix with butter and bake on top of a fruit dessert) |

There's a middle-eastern dish called Kataife that uses loose shredded wheat rehydrated with sugar, walnuts, cinnamon and a few other things. My grandma makes it and it is fantastic. |

I have to say I haven't done this since i was about 10 but when I was a child I used to make chocolate nests out of them. |

You could also use them in place of bread crumbs when, for example, coating chicken breasts. You could also use them in muffins. There's a whole list of shredded wheat recipes here and here. |

One option would be to use as an ingredient in bread. Nova Scotia Brown Bread utilizes molasses, shortening, and in some recipes that I've seen, shredded wheat. For example, you could use the equivalent of two pieces in this recipe. |
