Homemade Museli
Adding a variety of dried fruits, nuts, and spices to your whole-grain cereal is an easy way to incorporate whole grains and fiber to your morning meal. You can even prepare a large batch of dried muesli ahead of time and store it in a tightly sealed container so that you can always have a hot, nutritious breakfast ready to go!
