State of muesli ingredients maybe served up without starters (7)
I believe the answer is:
tunisia
'state' is the definition.
(I know this)
I don't understand the remainder of the clue.
(Other definitions for tunisia that I've seen before include "Country between Algeria/Libya" , "Country where Carthage is found" , "country-style" , "Country which contains the site of Carthage" , "Somewhere in North Africa" .)
