- BIRCHERMU"ESLI
- Serves 1
-
- Dr. Bircher-Benner's original Birchermu"esli contained only oats, water,
- lemon juice, condensed milk, fruit and nuts. Nowadays, more dairy products
- are added; sometimes even huge swirls of cream are piped on top--which must
- somewhat upset the balance good doctor was striving for. It is a highly
- nutritious calorie bomb, not so much a breakfast dish as a meal in itself,
- and is often enjoyed for lunch or supper with good bread and a glass of milk.
-
- 3 tbsp packaged muesli with raisins and nuts
- 150 ml/5 oz Plain Yogurt
- 100 ml/3.5 oz/0.5 cup Milk
- 4-5 Tbsp Orange Juice
- 1 Small Apple, Grated
- optional:
- 2 Tbsp Honey or Sugar
- Other Fresh Fruit as Available
-
- Stir together all the ingredients and let the Birchermu"esli stand for about
- 15 minutes. Other fresh fruit may be added if wished.
-
- The packaged mix consists mostly of rolled oats, with some dried fruits,
- raisins, and grated nuts. It may or may not be sweetened with a little
- brown sugar.
-
- If you live in Southern California, Trader Joe's is a good source.
