Ingredients
3 cups rolled oats 1/3 cup wheat germ 2 tablespoons sesame seeds 2 tablespoons sunflower seeds 1/3 cup almonds, chopped 2 tablespoons canola oil 3 tablespoons honey 1/3 cup dried apricots, chopped 1/3 cup dried dates, chopped 1/3 cup raisins
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
Mix oats, wheat germ, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds and almonds in a large bowl.
Add oil and honey to the bowl and stir until all ingredients are well combined.
Pour contents of bowl unto an ungreased cookie sheet.
Distribute contents on cookie sheet so that they cook evenly.
Bake for 30-45 minutes (until the oats and almonds appear golden), stirring well every 10 to 15 minutes (this ensures even baking).
Once baked, remove cookie sheet from oven and let the oat mixture cool.
Once sufficiently cooled stir in the dried fruit.
Store the muesli in an airtight container for up to a month.

A healthy, delicious morning cereal. I mix 1/4 cup of this cereal with a bowl of bran flakes, or a 1/2 strawberry yogurt, and sliced fruit for a quick and healthy breakfast
