Apricot and Almond Muesli

/

I love having a batch of this home made muesli in the cupboard to eat. You know exactly what is going into it, and you can miss out or swap things you don't like. One batch generally lasts me a good couple of weeks when I don't have it every day. I've tried other flavours but I just keep coming back to this one. It's soooooo good :)

Blueberry Overnight Oats

/

In the last couple of years I have discovered overnight oats. They are a lifesaver when i have an early start in the morning. You can prepare a number of days ahead of time, and just add the milk and fruit the night before. I like using old jam jars for mine. They are the perfect size, portable and sustainable. This is a nutritious, filling, and super easy way to start the day.
