If you're trying to get away from the boxed cereals that are often loaded with sugar and artificial or genetically modified ingredients here is a great alternative that is easy to make and store. It's a source of whole grains, proteins and healthy fats and is sweetened with natural ingredients. You can also play with seasonings to change the flavor. I made a quick bowl this morning and it was perfectly satisfying.
Easy Homemade Muesli
1 c mixed unsalted nuts (walnuts, pecans, almonds, etc.)
1 c raw, unsalted seeds (pumpkin, sunflower, hemp, sesame, chia)
1/2 - 1 c dried fruit (raisins, currants, dried cherries, chopped apricots, etc.)
cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves (to taste, optional)
Combine all the ingredients in an airtight container. Serve with plain yogurt or almond milk. For more sweetness, add a bit of honey or real maple syrup.
