The original inspiration for this was my Easy, Overnight Muesli (Switzerland) from the Usborne Children's World Cookbook that Gramma gave my son when he first started learning to cook. This version was created when I was soaking the oats one night when DS mentioned that he'd eaten the last apple. He didn't know I had plans for it in the morning. The next morning I used strawberries instead and whatever else was on hand & this recipe was born. :) Muesli is a healthy breakfast cereal, originally created by a Swiss doctor, made up of grains, fruit and nuts. Cook time includes overnight softening of the oats, as there is no actual cooking for this recipe.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons rolled oats (bulk section of supermarket)
6 tablespoons water
6 strawberries
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon dried cranberries (i used pomegranate flavored)
1 tablespoon pecans, chopped
1 tablespoon clear honey
Directions:
1. Before you go to bed, put the oats into a large bowl and pour the water on top.
2. In the morning, remove stems from strawberries and chop the fruit into 1/2 inch pieces.
3. Gently stir strawberries, lemon juice, cranberries and pecans into the softened oats.
4. Divide the muesli into four bowls and drizzle some honey on top of each serving.
