serving it up...

the muesli is all about sugar free goodness.  So if you're controlling your weight, it's important to consider what you serve with it.  Smother it in honey or flavoured yoghurt and you're unlikely to see the weight dropping off any time soon.

Below are some smart, sensational suggestions from the muesli lovers. 

To stay up to date with new serving ideas, recipes and other healthy eating suggestions keep an eye out here.

straight-up

A taste sensation simply served with milk and/or natural yoghurt. Frozen berries, cut or grated fresh fruit optional.

bircher-style

Combine the muesli with 1-2 dstsp natural yoghurt, a splash of milk, and a small handful of frozen berries, or cut or grated fresh fruit. Stir and let sit for 15 minutes (or leave overnight if you like it really bircher’d up)

the roughie™

Shake fans rejoice! Combine a handful of fresh or frozen fruit (cantaloupe, mango, passionfruit, frozen raspberries and blueberries recommended), with 3 dstsp the muesli, 1-2 dstsp natural yoghurt, half a cup of milk and a couple of ice cubes. Mix with a hand blender in a tall jug and serve. More satisfying than a smoothie!

protein kick

For a super protein-rich breakfast, add 1 dstsp (20g) of good quality Whey Protein Isolate (WPI)* to the muesli – straight-up, bircher-style or the roughie.

* Try Donna Aston’s ‘Protein Supreme Vanilla’.

blinis - a savoury treat

Use a food processor to grind a cup of the muesli to a course flour like consistency.  Combine with a cup of Greek yoghurt and 2 eggs, a little salt & pepper for delicious blinis drop a teaspoon of batter onto non stick pan until small bubbles appear, turn to briefly cook other side. Perfect served with smoked trout and a dob of horseradish as a party nibble.
