Home Made Wheat-Free Muesli
You can easily pay £3.99-£4.99 for around 800g
So, here's an alternative, and it begins by using 50% of the cheapest own brand oats you can find, and in the UK that's about 80-100p/kg. Then scout out your nearest wholefood shop where you can buy barley, rye or jumbo oats by the kilo, and whatever seeds etc you like. Finish off with the nuts and mixed fruit, and as well as the discount shops like Lidl, there are other ones that do good deals on big bags of walnuts and suchlike. If I can find them in a small Welsh town then I'm sure they are pretty widespread!
So, the recipe is very simple and produces a nice tasty muesli equally as good as the fancy brands, with 37.5% fruit/nut/seed content.
