Bircher muesli with fresh berries
Bircher muesli is universally known to be a really quick and easy breakfast option. This recipe is full of fibre, vitamins and minerals and will provide a slow release of glucose, to keep you full through the morning. In the winter I like adding more nuts or nut butters for extra comfort and energy
