Ingredients

Muesli Ingredients :
2 cups rolled grains (mix of oats, flaked quinoa or flaked amaranth work well)
4 tsp chia seeds
4 tsp hemp seeds
¼ tsp cardamom
Topping Options :
Raw sunflower seeds
Pepitas (hulled pumpkin seeds)
Freeze dried berries
Unsweetened almond milk

Preparation

Toss your grains, chia seeds, hemp seeds, and cardamom (cinnamon is wonderful too) together and store in an airtight glass jar at room temperature.
Scoop ½ cup portion into a bowl, top with your desired amount of toppings, and serve with almond milk (or your choice of milk).
Mix well and keep a little almond milk on the side to add as you eat if you’d like, seeing as the grains soak up quite a bit.
