Muesli

I found a recipe for muesli on-line and decided it would be the perfect companion for homemade yogurt. Basically it’s just uncooked granola. So I whipped up a batch, totally changed the recipe, and love it! There are about a million possible combinations, too! Have fun discovering your favorite!

The first one I made was tropical muesli with raisins, papaya, mango, coconut, almonds, orange cranberries. I am already thinking about what to do next…

1 cup rolled oats

3 tablespoons wheat germ

3 tablespoons ground flaxseed or sesame seeds

5 tablespoons brown sugar

2 tablespoons chopped nuts of your choice 

1 tablespoon raw, hulled (out of shell) sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds

1/4 cup chopped dried fruit of your choice

honey (optional)

grated apple (optional)

plain yogurt

Mix the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Store in airtight container on shelf.

Stir into plain yogurt just before serving. Add a touch of honey and a little grated fresh apple if wanted.
