Morning Muesli



We just spent a week with one of my sisters and her family. It's always amazing to see how children grow and mature when they're put in the hot house environment of concentrated family time. My sister has three boys, two of them older than my two, and one younger, so you may be able to imagine the sheer volume and exuberance of the play!! My three year old now has a healthy obsession with "trashies" and "skylanders". It's adorable. In addition to this prep-aged toy indoctrination, my children are obsessed with muesli. Not just any old store bought mix of oats and nuts, either.  My sister and her husband make their own muesli and it packs an extreme nutritious punch. I had no option but to get their recipe and scoot out to the shops the day after we returned so that I could whip us up a batch. Oats, LSA, additional linseed, white chia seeds, amongst other things, topped with organic yoghurt and diced poached apples, it is a delicious way to start your day. And end it, too, for that matter - we've substituted this as our dessert and it is just a heavenly treat to look forward to.
