grain free "cereal"

This is a great "cereal" that I make and keep in my fridge for a quick breakfast or snack.
Its made w/ shredded, dried coconut, soaked and dehydrated nuts and seeds, dried fruits and cinnamon.
1/2 cup each: pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds
1/2 cup each:macademia nuts,brazil nuts and almonds(you can use any combo of nuts that you like)
1 cup shredded coconut
1 cup dried fruit(I use prunes, apricots, figs and raisins)
1-2 tsp cinnamon
Either coarsely chop the nuts, seeds, and fruit w/ a knife or in batches, chop the seeds, then the nuts, then the fruit in the food processor. Use the pulse on the processor so you can control the size of the ingredients.
Put all the chopped ingredients into a glass storage container and mix in the cinnamon. Store in the frigde and serve w/ yogurt, kefir, milk or just eat it plain. You could add sweetener if you wanted, too.
