One who inspires shelter talked about providing breakfast (6)
I believe the answer is:
muesli
'breakfast' is the definition.
(common breakfast food)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for muesli that I've seen before include "Granola-like food" , "Breakfast dish of cereal, dried fruit and nuts in milk" , "Breakfast mush" , "Breakfast mix of oats, nuts, fruit etc" , "Oat-based breakfast cereal" .)
