"I've been a cereal lover since I was a kid," said Tosi. "I believe in the excitement a bowl of cereal can bring any time of the day and I'm so excited to bring back a household staple in a fun, creative way!"
Tosi's latest recipe creations are a true reflection of her impeccable palette and ability to refine the most comforting and familiar foods. In addition to the select items created by Tosi, the all-day menu includes breakfast items, evening snacks and even delectable ice cream treats:
