Fancy a breakfast that is high in protein but also tasty? Well try this overnight muesli breakfast. This has become a favourite with my family!
It’s ideal for people who are always in a rush and like to have breakfast on the go. Just prepare this overnight in a plastic container and take it with you when you leave for work in the morning. I often take this with me to the office and have it as a treat after my lunch.
Ingredients for 1 serving
Preparation time 5 minutes
All measurements are estimates and can be changed to suit your taste.
2 -3 tablespoons Jam (Any flavour will do – we used blackcurrant jam)
1 cup of Greek Style Yogurt (I used the light version)
½ cup of any Muesli (We used Swiss Style Berry Muesli with no added sugar)
1 tablespoon of Organic Sprouted Flax Powder (available at most health food stores)
1 tablespoon Honey (optional)
10-12 Cashew Nuts
5-6 sliced Almonds
Method:
You can use any combination to mix this breakfast. This is my suggestion
1. Take a small bowl or glass and add 2 tablespoons of jam at the bottom.
2. Top this with 2-3 tablespoons of yogurt, followed by a similar amount of muesli.
3. Top this with another layer of yogurt, followed by sprouted flax powder and top it with more muesli.
4. Add the honey to this mixture and layer it with more yogurt.
5. Add a tablespoon of jam on top of the yogurt.
6. Garnish this with a layer of cashews.
7. Finish the preparation with some almonds and cover the dish with plastic wrap and keep it overnight in the fridge.
8. Breakfast is ready to enjoy in the morning.

This one made my mouth water just reading it lol. Best believe I’m going to try this out this week.
I also must thank you. I live in Florida (USA) and though I’ve had a few friends who were Indian I was never able to get to learn about the culture in terms of food as much as I would have liked. Your website has allowed me to do that.
This is such a simple but tasty recipe packed with nutrition. On my ‘to do’ list. Thank You for such a wonderful dish MinaJi.
This is a very healthy breakfast with Nuts, Jam and yogurt. I have tried this with Strawberry Jam and it was very good. I had it breakfast early morning and I was full of energy and kept me going until about late afternoon.
