One of my favorite birthday gifts this year was a beautiful cookbook by Donna Hay. Not only is it amazing to look at, I also want to make just about every recipe in it. Titled ” Life in Balance: A Fresher Approach to Eating,” it basically sums up my philosophy about food and cooking. This Muesli was inspired by her Power Seed Bircher and it is divine. Full of healthy seeds and just the right amount of sweetener, it is healthy and completely satisfying. I love making Muesli in the warmer months. And, it couldn’t be easier. Just mix everything together in a bowl, cover and stick in the fridge overnight. Enjoy!
