Bread with butter, marmite and anotherslice with jam is what I used have for breakfast regularly. Its definitely notthe most healthy way to start your day. When we moved here, we often cameacross this breakfast meal named Bircher Muesli. We were curious try it out, asit was a popular Swiss breakfast sold everywhere from cafes, bakeries, supermarkets to office canteens.Bircher is the name of the Swissphysician who introduced this in 1900s.It was introduced to his patients as a part of therapy which included diet richin fresh fruits and vegetables. (Source Wikipedia) Its a mixture of uncookedrolled oats, fruits, nuts and yoghurt.
First my husband tried it, he felt itwas a filling and delicious breakfast. Most importantly its the most healthiestway to start your day, with nourishmentsfrom rolled oats, yoghurt, fresh fruits and nuts. It has protein, essentialvitamins, minerals and good fat from nuts. Yoghurt has more nutritionalbenefits compared to milk. At this point I can't think of a better breakfast than this in terms of its health benefits.
I use seasonal fruits to make thismeal. During spring time, I used variety of berries such as straw berries,raspberries, blue berries and black berries. Now I'm using summer fruits such asapricots, nectarines, black grapes. Also you can be creative and use mangoes,pears, apples or whatever the fruit that is available. Moreover you canprepare this on previous night for 2 to 3 days and store it in fridge.
Although original recipe does not callfor cinnamon powder. I added this spice due to its health benefits. To name of few, it helps to reduce your blood sugarlevels, high in anti-oxidants, lowers bad cholesterol and has an anti-clottingeffect. If you like to start your day with lots of energy, I highly recommendyou to try this Most healthy breakfast ever....
