3 reasons to enjoy muesli (and 3 ways to make it at home)

A popular breakfast option, muesli can be an excellent meal to start the day, or even a portable snack when we are out and about.

If you like muesli, here are more reasons to build a bowl with it:

Wholegrain goodness

Usually combined with rolled oats, muesli is an easy, all-in-one way to get more health-giving whole grains into your daily diet.

Plant power

The nuts and seeds in packaged muesli might be small, but they’re mighty in nutrition. Ready-made muesli is full of plant-based protein and gut-loving fibre, as well as heart-healthy fats.

Perfect pairing

Muesli is a delicious, wholesome base to build on. Top it with other nutritious ingredients, such as fruit, reduced-fat Greek-style yoghurt or milk.
