Sarita's crazy good Museli

CRAZY GOOD MUSELI

Ingredients (set these out on the counter BEFORE you start mixing!)

(((for a flavor BOOST, go Organic!)))

3c Rolled oats
1/4 shaved almonds
2T cinnamon
1T all spice
1/4c unsalted sunflower seeds
1/2 pitted dates (chopped small, raisin size)
1/4c raisins
1/4c chopped pumpkin seeds
1/4c wheat germ
1/4c ground flax seeds

Throw everything into a zip lock bag and SHAKE IT LIKE A POLAROID PICTURE! Shake it, shake it...you get the picture.

Here are ways you can eat it:

Breakfast #1
You create the mix and set it up the night before you want to eat it. Use a 2:1 ratio of water in a bowl and put it in the fridge overnight (to absorb).

In the morning, add berries or banana chunks to it

Breakfast #2
The night before: slice up fresh pineapple and put 1/2 cup of your museli on each pineapple ring (in a baking dish) then bake for 30 minutes. Let cool then put it in a container in the fridge overnight. Eat it for breakfast after the museli has totally absorbed the pineapple juice - THIS IS CRAZY DELICIOUS!!

Breakfast #3
2:1 ratio again - use juice instead of water for a sweeter cereal (as in #1 overnight soaking).

You can have any of these dishes warm too.

I hope you enjoy!
