Growing up, we were a cold cereal type family. We rarely had cooked breakfast as we were all busy in the morning, and actually preferred a bowl of Lucky Charms over a stack of pancakes! Sadly enough, I have passed the cold cereal tradition on to my family. After trying these Easy Lemon Pull Apart Rolls, I decided to try something just as easy and delicious for my family to enjoy! It was absolutely amazing {and they were thrilled to have a break from cereal}!

Ok, yum! We were always a cold ceral type family too. Not because we liked it more, but because nobody wanted to wake up early enough to make something warm. {not morning people!} This looks simple and delicious, love the orange zest and juice to amp up that orange flavor. Great recipe girls! Saw ya featured over at Home Styled. 🙂
