Muesli Basic Recipe Preparation:
The preparation for the basic cereal recipe is very simple. First, place your oatmeal in a portion-sized bowl. Add milk or a plant-based milk alternative to the oatmeal.
At Verival, we also like to use almond milk, rice milk, coconut milk, or a mix of them. This way, you get an extra nutty taste or just a little more natural sweetness in your cereal.
Then stir in the yogurt and mix in the lemon juice.
Now you leave the cereal for five minutes. During this time, the oatmeal absorbs the liquid and begins to swell. The slightly firmer consistency will also keep you full for longer. That's why this cereal recipe is also great if you just want to lose a few kilos.
After five minutes, you can garnish your basic cereal recipe with fresh fruit and/or nuts. This fruit and nuts combination not only tastes great, but is also very healthy.
Still want some more sweetness? Then just add some honey over your cereal, stir, and enjoy.
Have fun and enjoy your meal!
