Layers of crisp muesli, chocolate chia, creamy yoghurt and zingy berries…a beautiful breakfast bowl indeed! I know what you’re thinking – “how do you expect me to whip that up in my busy morning?!” Here’s the trick: you’ve already made a batch of nutty crunchy muesli (using this recipe), there’s a container of chocolate chia waiting for you in the fridge (from this recipe) and all you have to do is assemble it all. That’s the beauty of it – the muesli & the chia store well, so once you’ve got them sorted, your morning decadence awaits.So this isn’t really a recipe as such, more of an urge, an inspiration, an enthusiastic suggestion to try this combination: muesli, chia pudding, yoghurt & berries, layered as you wish.
I’ve used coconut yoghurt, because it’s my current fave, but feel free to swap it for whatever creamy concoction you prefer. I tried using cashew cream once, but found I preferred the runnier, slightly sour, lighter option of the coconut yoghurt.
Assemble and layer it however you choose – in a glass, a bowl, a jar – and adjust quantities to suit. Chopped bananas work well too. If your yoghurt is thick & you’re after a wetter blend, add some milk of your choice.
This feels like an indulgent breakfast – and gosh it looks cute – but you can let out a smug sigh as you eat: it is loaded with goodness, from fibre to protein to omega-3s. And there’s no refined sugar. Yuss.
