breakfast museli

2 · Jun 23, 2020 · 2 Comments

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

this simple breakfast museli is prepared the night before for a delicious ready-made meal the next morning!

When I lived in Boston one of the things I loved was taking myself out to breakfast at Tatte in Brookline on the mornings that I had late class. And my go-to order every time was their museli.

Up until I started doing that, I had always done overnight oats, but Tatte’s museli definitely made me a convert.

I love that museli is a little thicker than typical overnight oats (which can feel a little slimy if not done exactly right). And if you like a thinner consistency, you can easily just add a drizzle of milk to get it to where you want it to be.

It’s also highly adaptable. The basics of oats and yogurt apply, but from there you can mix up whatever nuts, dried fruit and spices you happen to have or like!

You can also mix some honey or maple syrup right into the mixture before you let it sit overnight.

I personally like to drizzle it over the top because then I have more control over how sweet it is (especially depending on the amount of dried and fresh fruit you add in).

I love that you can make it ahead and use pretty much whatever you have on hand and it will still come out great.

Nothing better than that if you ask me!

    Museli is my all time favorite summer breakfast! We love to shred apple into ours and also slice some dates to add in! I can’t wait to try yours!

what's a diet culture rule you've never quite understood? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ for me it was definitely the "don't eat after 6pm" rule 🤔 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ hunger and digestion are not run by the clock. there are so many factors that can go into why we feel hungry from one moment to the next, and that feeling of hunger is always valid and should be honored, regardless of the time of day. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ similarly, there are no 'right' or 'wrong' times to eat a meal. breakfast, lunch and dinner are not bound to specific windows of time. each can be eaten whenever you & your body deem it appropriate. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ hope this reaches anyone who might need these reminders today ❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #caitsplatenutrition #caitsplate #antidietdietitian #mindsetmatters #allfoodsfit #edwarriors #rdchat #dietitiansofinstagram #healthateverysize #dietculturedropout #nondietdietitian #antidietculture #antidietrevolution #intuitiveeatingjourney

just to add a little perspective around the messaging that’s out there telling us all how to “lose the COVID 15...”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ let's reframe the fear mongering language around weight gain during this pandemic as a sign of privilege. having enough, at a time where so many have lost so much, should be looked at as nothing but a positive.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ our bodies are meant to shift and change with different seasons of life. using food as one way to cope with hard emotions is completely common and part of a peaceful relationship with food.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ we are in unprecedented times. seeking self-comfort and care in whatever way works for you is OKAY. having gained weight during this pandemic is OKAY and not something you need to be jumping to 'fix' or 'correct.' and most importantly, it's okay to reframe comfort eating to something you can be grateful for, a coping skill you have the privilege and opportunity to enjoy, rather than berating yourself for it.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ sending everyone a great big virtual hug today 🤍⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #caitsplatenutrition #caitsplate #nondietapproach #antidietdietitian #antidietculture #intuitiveeatingjourney #intuitiveeating #nondietdietitian #youareenough #youareworthy
