Basic Muesli
- 2 cups porridge oats, dry roasted
- 1/4 cup apricot, dried and chopped
- 15 -20 almonds, peeled and sliced
- 1/4 cup black currants
- 1 cup corn flakes
- To serve
- 1/4 cup fig, dried and chopped
- 3 strawberries, quartered
- honey
- cold milk or hot milk, as required
- yoghurt, as required
- In a bowl combine the roasted oats, almonds, black currants, cornflakes and apricots.
- Store in an airtight container and use as required.
- Dried pineapple, banana or other fruits may also be added.
- To serve, take a little of the prepared muesli mixture in a bowl.
- Add figs and fresh strawberries.
- Stir in honey and cold/hot milk, whichever you prefer.
- For those who can't have milk because they are on a vegan diet or on a weight loss or are avoiding milk and milk products, they may stir in water(this is what I do).
- Those who like yoghurt may add that to the muesli mixture.
- Mix well, allow to stand for 12 minutes and then eat it with a small spoon(a recent study has found that those who want to lose weight eat with smaller spoons and in smaller plates thereby fooling themselves into eating less).
- Enjoy and have a good day ahead!
