if you've never attempted muesli earlier than, let me fill you in: it's basically a combination of all of my favored wholesome meals! Oats, dried fruit, nuts, and seeds. Does it get any better? (properly, perhaps if you upload peanut butter...)
i was these days contacted by a organization referred to as Muesli Fusion to attempt out some in their distinct varieties, so certainly, I jumped on board proper away. I think I genuinely squealed with pleasure once I opened the box.
Classic Swiss |
Athlete Fuel |
An-Ox (Anti-Oxidant) |
I decided to attempt out the Athlete gas first. It changed into the cashews that hooked me ;) when you observe the serving length, 1/three of a cup appears so tiny for a hundred and sixty energy. but as compared to my normal oatmeal, it's simplest a smidge higher. And it does bulk up (much like oatmeal) when you soak it or prepare dinner it. you may eat muesli cold or warm. i really like to devour it cold, soaked in milk.
Right out of the bag |
Equal parts milk and muesli |
After 2 hours in the refrigerator |
the next day, I attempted the An-Ox muesli, organized the equal manner. unfortunately, i discovered it type of bland. It was the first time i might tried goji berries, and that i didn't think that they had a good deal flavor. I absolutely preferred the Athlete gas better.
at the again of the traditional Swiss muesli, there may be a recipe for Hearty Muesli Bars. I truely had all the substances available, so I made the bars. The guidelines stated to allow to cool absolutely before cutting, however i was too impatient to wait, so my bar fell aside a touch. thankfully, i love messy meals ;)
i was amazed that they had been form of salty--but I cherished them! The flavor reminded me of these almond cookies you get at chinese language eating places, and the feel turned into simply how you would consider it to be--chewy oats with crunchy nuts and candy bits of dried fruit. There have been only two tablespoons of honey inside the recipe, and that i did not think they could taste excellent because of the shortage of sweetness, however I did not sense that manner in any respect after I ate the bar. I absolutely had to urge Jerry to take the rest to work, so I wouldn't maintain choosing at all of them day.
there are numerous ways to devour muesli, so i'm going to hold experimenting. you could soak it in juice in preference to milk, top it with sparkling fruit, stir it into yogurt (I might not be attempting that, when you consider that you know I hate yogurt!), cook dinner it like you'll oatmeal for a hot cereal, bake it into cookies or bars, like above... the opportunities are limitless, in reality.
