Muesli
Muesli is our warm weather breakfast. It soaks overnight and is ready to spoon into bowls in the morning — an almost effortless and delicious breakfast ready to go.

I had wondered about how I could offer a good warm weather breakfast that my children would eat. This looks like something they might like, thanks! I will copy your other recipes too and see if we can’t get some of them incorporated into our menus.
I hope you like it. My kids love this breakfast! I also take it to church potlucks quite frequently and put it with the desserts. There is a family in our congregation that eats only raw foods and they can eat this and enjoy it. If you want it sweeter, replace some or all of the water with apple juice.
[...] 11. Our favorite breakfast meals are muesli in the summer and oatmeal in the winter. The muesli must be prepared the night before eating it to allow the grains to soak sufficiently, which makes serving breakfast extremely easy — it is all ready to go when we wake. As for oatmeal, I make a double batch. We eat it fresh one morning and then I save the rest in the refrigerator for the next day. On the second morning, I warm up the extra on the stove in a pot with a little water added to make it the consistency of fresh oatmeal. For more information, see my recipes for Muesli and Decadent & Hearty Oatmeal. [...]
