Mango Muesli with Brazil Nut Topping
Mango Muesli with Brazil Nut Topping
There’s nothing better than waking up to findbreakfast waiting for you in the fridge (except for maybe breakfast being servedto you in bed!). I much prefer the texture of soaked oats to that of cookedporridge. The combination of mangoes with coconut milk gives this hearty cerealan exotic, tropical flair. And although Brazil nuts are commonly the ones thatget left behind in the mixed nut dish, they’re loaded with nutrients and good,healthy fats, making them a great topping for your muesli! Traditional muesliis served with yogurt; if you’re avoiding dairy, you could try coconut, almond,or soy yogurt. It’s also delicious with just the coconut milk.
