Regular cereal contains so many awful ingredients and way too many carbs and sugar for great blood sugar regulation.
So this low carb muesli makes a great replacement and will soon become your favorite breakfast on the menu.
It’s refreshing, super healthy, and it’s also very filling, too.
The fresh strawberries give it just enough sweetness. Of course, blueberries, raspberries and blackberries pair perfectly as well.
The crunch of the nuts is what really makes it pop. Just pour a little bit of milk over the top (cow, almond, or coconut milk), or as an alternative, include a little plain Greek yogurt.
And if you’re the type of person who loves a sweet breakfast, add some stevia (a sugar substitute) to give it that extra sweet boost.

Hello,
This is valuable information to know. I will be purchasing these items soon. I eat mixed nuts daily. I would love to know a substitute for coconut because I don’t care for it. Other than that. I will be looking for more healthy meals to try.
Dr Jedha
Wannie, you can simply replace the coconut with a combination of other nuts and seeds – chia and flax being great options! Any of them work well together in a cereal so get creative and see what you come up with!

How much milk is a little?
Dr Jedha
Hi Robin, half a cup is usually enough to coat the muesli.

How much of it do you use for breakfast? All of it, some of it?
Dr Jedha - Nutritionist (PhD)
It’s 5 servings Jean, so roughly divide accordingly.

I particularly enjoyed this information on breakfast choices that are better for diabetics. I have lost 46 pounds and originally diagnosed with diabetes 2. Now my blood sugars have improved and my blood sugars are in the Prediabetic range.
However I still have much to learn. I have been eating oatmeal for most of my breakfasts, and I did not realize how carb heavy oatmeal was. My goal is to get my blood sugars even lower. So I am trying to continue to learn and modify my diet.
Thankyou for your ongoing articles and information.

Congrats on your results so far Dianne! There’s always more to learn so keep at it. I’m sure you can get better results.
