Alice's comment - PersonalCooker
You can keep the muesli in a glass jar, tightly closed with a screw cap to prevent the humidity from making the cereals "mushy". You can obviously change the type of cereal or dried fruit, even chocolate you can add it or not and you can even change sweetener: have fun customizing the muesli according to your tastes.Nutritional values and Health Comment on the recipe
