- .RH MOD.RECIPES-SOURCE MUESLI-1 B "22 Oct 86" 1987
- .RZ "MUESLI" "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:
- .IH "4 cups" "2 liters"
- .IG "3 cups" "rolled oats" "250 g"
- .IG "1 cup" "assorted dried fruit" "100 g"
- .IG "1 cup" "bran" "50 g"
- .IG "\(14 cup" "sesame seeds" "50 g"
- .IG "\(12 cup" "nuts" "75 g"
- .IG "\(34 cup" "shelled sunflower seeds" "100 g"
- .IG "1 cup" "banana chips" "60 g"
- .PH
- .SK 1
- Mix all ingredients together.
- .SK 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.
- .NX
- 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.
- .SH RATING
- .I Difficulty:
- easy.
- .I Time:
- 5 minutes.
- .I Precision:
- No need to measure.
