MUESLI-1(B)              USENET Cookbook              MUESLI-1(B)
MUESLI
     MUESLI-1 - cold, enriched porridge
     The trouble with buying packaged muesli is that 
it generally
     contains salt and sugar, often in larger quantities 
than you
     might choose for yourself.  Making your own muesli 
is quick
     and easy, and you can change the ingredients and 
alter the
     proportions to suit yourself.
     After a few experiments, I've settled on this recipe:
INGREDIENTS (4 cups)
     3 cups    rolled oats
     1 cup     assorted dried fruit
     1 cup     bran
     1/4 cup   sesame seeds
     1/2 cup   nuts
     3/4 cup   shelled sunflower seeds
     1 cup     banana chips
PROCEDURE
          (1)  Mix all ingredients together.
          (2)  Serve (about 5 heaped dessert spoons 
seems about
               the right amount) with milk, cream, yoghurt, 
or
               whatever you like on breakfast cereal. 
 I've heard
               that fruit juice is an alternative, but 
I haven't
               tried it.
NOTES
     Use your own choice of dried fruits.  I like to 
cut 4 or 5
     pieces of dried apricot into slivers, making up 
the balance
     with sultanas or raisins.  I generally use unsalted 
peanuts,
     but I'm sure most nuts would be fine (how about 
almonds?).
     One word of warning: if you use quick-cooking oats 
instead
     of rolled oats, the result is decidedly mushy.
RATING
     Difficulty: easy.  Time: 5 minutes.  Precision: 
No need to
     measure.
