I find that when I have muesli (about 7:30am) that I'm hungry again by 10 so end up having some nuts. Maybe I'm not eating enough

I really love banana's but the problem I have is that I'm really fussy how ripe or unripe they are. In fact, the lifespan of a banana for me is about 10 minutes. If its too ripe or unripe, I dont tend to eat them

Same here, but I think that's why I love them... you can't always garauntee it's going to be a good one, but when you get a good one... it's heaven. Makes you appreciate the good heh.

Maple syrup is the stuff to put in your porridge. You don't need much and it tastes real good too.

On the whole I try to eat a healthy balanced diet but I do have a real weak spot for sausage black pudding and egg rolls from the burger van up the road from work washed down with a bottle of Irn Bru.

Squint

Lol, you can tell you're scottish!!

Thank you Fringe!

Lovely! I'll be instructing the cook to ensure the nuts are stocked up as I could only find sesames seeds this morning, but otherwise I think this is an excellent alternative to the muesli I normally eat. Much more flavour.

Ever seen Jamie Olivers Pukkola.??

Make Pukkola, its a cross betweeen Museli and Porridge, and is absolutely amazing.

Jamie Oliver's Pukkola

Ingredients:
8 large handfuls of organic porridge oats 2 large handfuls of oat bran 1 handful of natural dried apricots 1 handful of chopped dried dates 1 handful of chopped walnuts 1 handful of chopped or almonds or Brazil nuts, 1 crunchy organic apple per person

Preparation:
Mix all ingredients together in a large airtight container. This can keep for a couple of months in a cool place. Ideally the night before, although this can be done on the morning if you forget, cover as many bowlfuls as you need with your choice of milk and the apple grated. To serve you can add a banana, some berries, a dollop of live yoghurt, or more milk to taste.

Makes about a weeks worth working on smaller rather than larger visual portion sizes - it's very filling!

Remember breakfast is supposed to get you up and moving, and kick start your metabolism. Its full of natural sugars, and nothing in this meal is refined, so its wholesome and slow releasing. I love it and make it all the time

I put raisins in my porridge, they make it sweet enough.

I used to eat tons and tons of sugar but that was just an addiction. I haven't had sugar added to anythign for years now!
