Healthy Nut and Seed Muesli

This is a healthy nut and seed muesli we used to make at my very first chef job, at the lovely Blue Gum Country Estate. We had a large buffet table which consisted of various buffet– style breakfast foods, suited for everyone(even the fussy ones, wink!)This is a very popular quick breakfast meal if you are an early morning runner or going to the gym before work. You can even take it with to work, match it with an individual small yogurt and whoop you have a small bite somewhere in between your busy day at work. With all the delicious nuts, seeds and dried fruits it is definitely very good for your health. Quick to make and easy to store. Basically most of the ingredients you just toss in an oven try, heat the syrup and vanilla, pour it over, give it a good toss and bake. And Bob’s your uncle!
