I have really enjoyed Alpen but it seems to have changed. I would like a recommendation for a ready made one. Please don’t say make it yourself as I have done in the past but I have absolutely no energy at the moment being post op. Many thanks for a response

Waitrose own make sugar free is lovely. We have it most days topped with fruit.

The only muesli I really love is Waitrose organic raisin and almond. I dislike some of either the fruit or the nuts in every other muesli, ir they set off my IBS, but that one is perfect.

We used to make our own, we got the recipe from the Internet.

Dh recently came home with a couple of packs of Asda’s Smartprice, absolute cheapest, muesli.

I asked why - he said it was recommended as the best (and perhaps the lowest in sugar) in Which!

My OH has Lidl muesli with 48% fruit and nuts …he must enjoy it he goes through an awful lot of it.
I have plain porridge made with water and add either blueberries or mixed frozen berries .

I usually make my own but lately have been enjoying Waitrose gluten free muesli.

Oat Pantry muesli, granola and porridge are all lovely.

Dorset cereals make nice ones and are stocked in waitrose. Waitrose oŵn are good. I eat waitrose multigrain muesli base and add frozen fresh or tinned fruit to it. I don't like nuts in mine.

I buy a pack of Waitrose Essential Sugar free Muesli, liked by Silvershadow and mix it with a pack of Waitrose Organic Sugar free with almonds, liked by twiglet77

This makes the nicest muesli for my taste and I add a medjool date and half an apple, both chopped fairly small.

I pour the contents of both boxes in to a large mixing bowl to mix thoroughly then it all fits in to a ‘lock and lock’ 3.9L cereal dispenser.
