Wash the rhubarb under running water and dry it with a paper towel. Cut off the tough ends on both sides, then chop the stalks into pieces about 1 cm long. Use a sharp knife and a cutting board for chopping. Transfer the chopped rhubarb to a small saucepan.
Description
A light, fresh breakfast option that combines crunchy muesli with creamy natural yogurt and seasonal fruits — strawberries and rhubarb. The dish is inspired by Polish spring: rhubarb adds a pleasant tartness, strawberries bring sweetness and color, while the apple provides a delicate texture. Muesli with yogurt is a quick, nutritious breakfast that can be served in bowls or layered in glasses; it pairs well with coffee or green tea. This dish is visually appealing — the contrast of the white yogurt, pink strawberries, and red rhubarb against the brown muesli — and nutritionally valuable: protein from yogurt, fiber from fruits, and carbohydrates from muesli. A simple recipe for beginners, with clear steps for preparing the rhubarb and assembling the portions.

Preparation steps
Rhubarb
In a saucepan, add sugar (15 g) and about 30 ml of water (2 tablespoons) to the rhubarb. Place over low heat, bring to a boil, and then simmer for 4–6 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon every minute. The rhubarb should soften and release juice, but still retain the shape of the pieces; if you want a smooth sauce, mash some of the pieces with a fork. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Fruits
Rinse the strawberries under cold water, dry them, and remove the stems. Cut larger fruits in half or quarters, leaving smaller ones whole. Wash the apple, cut it in half, remove the core, and dice it into small cubes (about 1 cm). If you prefer, you can peel the apple; it is not necessary.
Assembly
Mix the natural yogurt with a spoon or whisk in a bowl until it becomes smooth and creamy. This will ensure that the yogurt layer is uniform and will blend more easily with the muesli and fruits.
Divide the yogurt into four bowls or jars: allocate about 150 g of yogurt for each portion (600 g ÷ 4). Use a spoon to evenly spread the yogurt as the first layer.
Pour the muesli over the yogurt. Divide the total of 200 g into 4 portions, which is about 50 g of muesli per portion. Spread it evenly so that each portion has a crunchy layer.
Add the prepared fruits: for each serving, distribute 100 g of strawberries (400 g ÷ 4) and about 75 g of apple (300 g ÷ 4). On top, add a spoonful of warm or cooled rhubarb (from step 2). If the rhubarb is very liquid, drain the excess juice before adding.
Finishing
Finally, optionally drizzle each serving with honey (about 7.5 g = 1/2 tablespoon per serving) and sprinkle with walnuts (about 10 g per serving). The honey adds sweetness, while the walnuts provide crunch and heart-healthy fats.
Serving and storing
Serve immediately to keep the muesli crunchy. If preparing for later, keep the ingredients separate: yogurt and fruit in the fridge, muesli in an airtight container at room temperature, rhubarb in a small container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Once assembled, store in the fridge for a maximum of 2 hours — after that, the muesli will start to soften.
Fun Fact
Muesli was invented in Switzerland in the late 19th century as a healthy breakfast, and today it is popular all over the world. In the Polish version, it is often combined with seasonal fruits such as strawberries or rhubarb.

Tips
Serve in wide bowls to beautifully showcase the layers. For aesthetic effect, arrange the fruits symmetrically. You can prepare a version to take in jars: layers in reverse order (muesli at the bottom) will keep the crunchiness longer.
Store muesli in an airtight container in a dry place for 2–3 weeks. It's best to eat prepared portions immediately; if you need to store them, keep them in the fridge for a maximum of 2 hours. Rhubarb can be kept in the fridge for up to 24 hours, yogurt according to the date on the package.
