Is mule mixing cereal with fruit etc? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

muesli

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cereal with fruit etc?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'is mule mixing' is the wordplay.
'mixing' indicates an anagram.
'is'+'mule'='ismule'
'ismule' is an anagram of 'MUESLI'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for muesli that I've seen before include "Breakfast mixture of oats, nuts, fruit etc" , "Swiss breakfast?" , "Breakfast mixture of dry cereals and fruits" , "Breakfast food of cereals, dried fruit, nuts etc" , "healthy breakfast?" .)
