HOMEMADE MUESLI
The oats mixture is already in the oven. The bowl on the left includes homemade dried coconut, dried figs, cranberries and dried Turkish apricots. The bowl on the right includes coconut again, banana chips, dried strawberries and golden sultanas.
Recipe:
4 cups rolled oats
1 cup sliced almonds
pinch of salt
1 tsp cinnamon
3/4 tsp of vanilla powder
1/3 cup of canola oil (or grape seed oil)
1/4 to 1/3 cup of real maple syrup – available at Woolies
1/3 cup of pure honey
Mix the oats, almonds, salt, cinnamon, vanilla
then mix the canola oil, maple syrup and honey well and stir into the oats making sure its well mixed. Spread onto one large or 2 small baking trays and bake in the oven for 20 – 25 minutes. 160 deg C thermofan, 170 deg C regular oven.
Once lightly browned remove from oven, add fruit of your choice. Switch oven off and return tray to oven allowing everything to cool down together, you can leave the oven door slightly open because the coconut is inclined to burn a little. Store in an airtight container when cool. Great with yoghurt and honey for breakfast.

1 cup diced onion (I used 1½ cup, and I cooked the onions till transparent)
¼ teaspoon salt

I did add ½ teaspoon of sweet basil and garlic powder extra.
I also added 1 cup cheese of half white Cheddar and half Mozzarella cheese, and ½ cup extra Mozzarella cheese for after the baking, to put on direct after taking it out of the oven, and leave it like that for 2 minutes before taking it out of the muffin pan.

FRITTATA OP STOOF
Braai gekapte uie, soetrissies, ertjies, groenbone broccoli, blomkool, (enige groente wat jy van hou, en kies elke keer twee of drie ander soorte om af te wissel) in olyfolie tot lig-gaar.
Klits 3 eiers liggies saam, gooi die eiers oor die groente in die pan, en verlaag hitte.
Roer effe, maar nie te veel nie, laat die eier deurgaar kook en strooi bietjie gerasperde kaas oor.
Laat set vir paar minute, sny in skywe so in pan, amper soos pizza.

Drie eiers en twee soorte groente is genoeg vir een mens vir ‘n aandete, gebruik ‘n klein pan.
Vyf eiers maak genoeg dat jy dan ook so ‘n skyf frittata vir ontbyt kan eet, tot twee dae later, geburik dan die volgende grootte pan.
Jy kan ook bv gemaalde vleis so saam met die uie soteer, of bietjie gaar, oorskiet hoender om ‘n meer vullende aandete te maak, Gaar wors kan ingevoeg word, eintlik enigiets wat jy in die yskas het, enige oorskiet, die gereg kan op 20 maniere gevarieer word. Geniet!
Ps. Vergeet om te se, vanselfpsrekend, sout en peper en enige ander smaakmiddels soos jy daarvan hou. As ek vleis in ‘n frittata sit, bedien ek dit met ‘n bietjie blatjang.

BACON AND LIVER BREAKFAST
250 g bacon bits
250 g chicken livers
1 tin tomato and onion mix

Fry the liver first, then add bacon, keep turning it so it doesn’t burn.
Add tin onion and tomato salt and pepper sometimes at some curry powder.
Let that simmer on low heat till onion and tomato mix has heated through and meat is well covered with the gravy.
