What the heck is muesli? Well, it’s basically an un-baked version of granola. It’s a super common breakfast cereal in Europe and is starting to catch on here in the United States too. People love muesli because is a calorie-dense, protein-packed snack that will definitely fill you up and hold you over for a while.

Most muesli that you can buy in-store has been marked up quite a bit and might not necessarily use the best ingredients or fit your dietary needs. The good news is that it is SO easy to make at home… literally, you just put the stuff together in a jar and voila! You really can’t goof it up either, so if you don’t like a certain nut or fruit I listed below, just swap it out. Don’t eat oats? No prob. Hate coconut? Forget it. Just mix and match whatever you have in your pantry. As long as it somewhat resembles these pics, you’re good to go. 😉

All you fitness folks know that healthy fats from nuts and fiber from dried fruit gives you ENERGY. This is what we call a power snack, my friends.

Hope you enjoy!
