I went through this phase earlier of eating granola obsessively and being really proud of myself for being so healthy. Then I started making my own, and realized how fattening it actually is (unless you make a modified granola recipe, which I have and can share). Whoops.
Sort of like how I used to be all self-righteous about drinking canned Arizona Green Tea instead of soda only to realize it has like 12 tablespoons of sugar.
So then I went back to basics and started eating musli and I actually don't even miss the butter and sugar. Then I deconstructed that even further by just pouring a tablespoon or two of uncooked oats right into my yogurt along with some fresh fruit and cinnamon and/or cardamom. Is that bad? I've been doing it for weeks now to no ill effect. It actually tastes great. If it's bad to eat uncooked oats, forget I said it. If not, try it!
Or you can try this yummy musli recipe I just found and am going to make tomorrow. I will translate it if any English speakers want it. I like the idea of using coconut and sunflower seeds, though I only like the white ones, not the black ones. (Does anyone know the difference?)
