Muesli

This is quickly becoming our favorite breakfast.
It's incredible pricey to buy the prepackaged type so we just make it ourselves. I buy the 7 grain mix in the bulk section of our natural foods store for $1.29/lb. Then I throw in some raisins, pecan pieces, date pieces, a cup of shredded coconut and some chia seeds. It's best if you let it soak in milk for at least 20 minutes, the longer the better. I've heard the real European way to do it is to soak it overnight, sometimes even using water to do the soaking. Emmy loves it mixed in with her yogurt and Johanna prefers it like cereal (often with little patience for the soaking).

Try it!
