I have a strong affinity to Switzerland. Not only because I’m the biggest fan of Ovomaltine – and Swiss chocolate. I also grew up close to the border to Switzerland. Now that I live in Vienna, I don’t visit as often but I celebrate this great land and its product where I can. I eat, for example, 2 Ovomaltine chocolate bars at work. But that’s not enough: I eat a Swiss inspired breakfast to get ready for a day’s work and you should too!

This breakfast is called Bircher Muesli and really healthy and easy to make. I tried 3 different kinds (with my own recipe) and they are all so good! Variety it is!
