In March, Sharon Booy (Holistic Chef) and Tannis McLaren (Naturopathic Doctor) paired up to teach a series of cooking classes. The classes have been a great success and everyone walked away with a vast amount of nutritional knowledge and amazing culinary tips and tricks.

Here is one the recipes that Sharon created.

Muesli

1 1/2 cups     Whole oat flakes

1/2 cup          Unsweetened coconut

1/2 cup          Pepitas (raw pumpkin seeds)

1/2 cup          Raw almonds, roughly chopped

3/4 cup          Dates, chopped (approximately 7 large medjool dates)

2 tbsp.            Flax seeds

2 tbsp.            Chia seeds

  • In a large bowl, add all of the ingredients and mix well. Store in the fridge in an airtight container or jar.
  • To serve, place 1/2 cup of muesli in a bowl and pour milk (almond, rice, or soy), yogurt or apple juice over it. Chop a banana or grate an apple into the muesli.
  • Enjoy immediately, or let sit for 30 minutes or more if desired.
