I'll call this "Thursday" morning muesli! These recipes are basically a challenge for myself since it seems just about everyone has given up on the challenge. I'm going to use a different cookbook and do this again next year. It keeps me from being apathetic around dinnertime and it keeps me eating healthy. This recipe called for the following:
3 C rolled oat flakes (used 1 1/2 C)
1/2 C wheat germ (didn't use-my wheat germ was rancid)
1/2 C sesame seeds (didn't use-too many sesame seeds make me itch)
1/2 C sunflower seeds (used 1/4 C)
1/4 C pumpkin seeds (used 1/8 C)
1/2 C nuts, roughly chopped (used 1/4 C slivered almonds)
1 C dried fruit (used 1/2 C cranberries)
*I added 2 Tbsp ground flaxseed
I'm not too sure about eating oats without cooking them-but that is what muesli is as opposed to granola which has been baked or roasted. Learn something new every day! I think I will add some water to mine and make some oatmeal or try stirring some into soy yogurt. Time for breakfast!
