Muesli Smoothie

Submitted by kitty.rock

"This smoothie is packed with healthy ingredients and is an innovation way of using muesli. An extra drink can be stored overnight in the refrigerator, although you'll probably need to add more milk in the morning as it will undoubtedly thicken on standing. Apricot and ginger are perfect partners in this divine drink. It makes an incredibly healthy, tasty breakfast, but is so delicious and indulgent that you could even serve it as a dessert after a summer meal. From the Big Bean Cookbook. NOTE: Choose unsulphured dried apricots for the healthiest choice of dried fruit."
