Breakfast: Carrot Muesli

Carrot MuesliI first saw this recipe for Carrot Muesli in an Alive publication I purchased a few weeks ago and it immediately caught my attention and appealed to me. It is also the very recipe that got me thinking about my breakfasts and how I was stuck in a rut and wanted to add a little more variety to my morning meals.

I had never actually prepared rolled oats as this recipe described by simply soaking in cold water for 15-30 minutes. And raw grated carrots in my oats... I had never tried that before either, but that along with the convenient preparation method sounded interesting enough that I wanted to give it a shot. I'm so glad I did, too, since I absolutely loved it!

Recipe from Alive: Carrot Muesli. I used unsweetened almond milk in the recipe and substituted the honey with half the amount of agave. I also used walnuts and cinnamon instead of hazelnuts and anise, since I'm not big on either of those flavors.

This sounds really good! I've made muesli overnight in the refrigerator several times, especially during the summer months, but I've never tried it like this before. I'm looking forward to giving this recipe a shot! Thanks!!

Excellent recipe Cassie. Had this for breakfast this morning, with a few tweaks based on what I had in the fridge. Finally cracked open my agave nectar - yum. Given it was a bit chilly this morning I also heated the milk. Which also speeds up the soaking time.

Heating the milk is an excellent tip and I'm mentally filing it for those chilly mornings myself. Thanks for sharing that, Kathryn!
