Recipe of the Week: Muesli

Muesli

No point fighting it.

You will consume more calories than the human body is meant to handle tomorrow. Then you’re going to have to have at least one slice of each of the three pumpkin pies your relatives brought just to make sure feelings aren’t hurt.

Not much you can do about Thanksgiving, but why not get off to a healthy start the day after?

Fuel up for Black Friday with this easy-to-prepare breakfast recipe that weighs in at just 164 calories, and you’ll be off to the mall knowing you at least undid a fraction of the damage you did the day before.
