Easy and healthy muesli is a popular breakfast (and evening) dish in many parts of the world including Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. It is a simply prepared dish that is based on uncooked oatmeal and fruit.
You will generally find two types of muesli, dry and fresh.
Dry is generally a loose mixture of cereal grains and rolled oats with perhaps some nuts, seeds, or dried fruit tossed in. It is very common to find this prepackaged in the cereal aisle in your local grocery store.
Fresh muesli (the original style) includes rolled oats that have been soaked in fruit juice or water. It is also common for this type of healthy muesli to have grated or chopped fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, grains, and spices mixed in.
Place in a bowl, stir, cover, and refrigerate overnight:
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 1/2 teaspoons plain yogurt
1/2 cup milk or soy milk
1 1/2 teaspoons honey, pure maple syrup, rice syrup, agave syrup, or fruit spread
Top with the fruit of your choice (strawberries, blueberries, sliced banana, grated apple, mango, etc.)
