You’ve always got time for Bircher Muesli…
Whenever a client tells me they don’t have time for breakfast, I always tell them to prepare a Bircher Muesli. It takes little to no preparation, it’s made the night before and if you set it in a glass container (like Decor Glass Match-ups), you can take it with you when you leave the house.
If you want to Supercharge Your Bircher?
To boost your nutrient intake, I always add fresh nuts/seeds. If you struggle with the taste/can’t be bothered with crushing/chopping your own individual nuts/seeds, mix 2 tablespoons of Kapai Puku Mix into the oats before you soak. This mix is available from Chemist Warehouse (ask a staff member – they are so tricky to find, usually on the bottom shelf of one of the aisles, never where you’d expect them to be) and is a really great balance of the nutrient dense seeds we struggle to incorporate on a busy schedule.
To help minimise sugar intake, this recipe calls for coconut or almond milk instead of orange juice. The apple in the recipe helps sweeten things naturally and you can always add more fruit for a sweet, but nutritious boost.
