Breakfast is always a constant battle for me. I love to eat it but I lack the time in the morning – in reality I have about 10 minutes to make it. I tend to go with the easy option of toast more often than not. Sometimes if I’m organised the night before I’ll make oatmeal and stick it in my trusty Thermos flask so it’s still warm in the morning.

Recently I was thinking about muesli – I love it but I find the store bought stuff so boring! Dusty oats with hard dry raisins…no thanks. So I decided to make my own.

This muesli is packed with all the goodies I enjoy. It’s also naturally gluten-free and refined sugar free!

I’m using dehydrated strawberries but if you don’t own a dehydrator feel free to sub with freeze dried or store bought!
