Toasted Bran Muesli and Wild Blueberry Honey Yogurt Bowl

Toasted Bran Muesli and Wild Blueberry Honey Yogurt Bowl, Jan. 3, 2023.

Standing by the counter, I work on eating my yogurt and muesli bowl before heading out to clean the Airbnb. Usually, nothing but coffee before noon for me, but on a cleaning day it is a good idea to have something substantial. It takes several hours to turn the house not including yard work, so a growling tummy isn’t a good working companion. Today’s yogurt bowl is really good and flavorful. Huge berries, a homemade toasted muesli, yogurt, and a wild blueberry honey drizzle. My mouth is enjoying the flavors and textures- sweet and tart, creamy, crunchy, toasty- it is breakfast ambrosia.

Muesli is easy to make and a wonderful way to enjoy nutrition packed grains. This homemade toasted bran muesli combines bran, sliced almonds, quinoa, and oats- all toasted for a few minutes to give it a nice flavor and crunch. It pairs well with the berries, yogurt, and honey in this bowl. You can make the muesli ahead of time and store it.
