I have re-discovered an old recipe that a friend gave me when I was a Girl Scout leader - way back when!! It is for granola and I have been putting it on my yogurt each morning and wow, is it yummy! It's great to have something good for you that also tastes good! If you want to try it, here you go:
GRANOLA ... makes about 6 cups
- 3 Cups Oats
- 1 C shredded coconut
- 1 C chopped nuts
- 1/4 C honey (or more)
- 1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp salt
Mix all together & put in a 13"x9" pan. Cook @ 350 for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. After cooking, add:
- 2/3 C raisins
- dried fruit
Instead of raisins, I added Craisens. I bought a big bag at BJ's and also a big bag of mixed dried fruit & nuts. So, I put a scoop of the granola over my greek yogurt & add an additional handful of dried fruit and that's all there is to it. Try it & let me know what you think.
I made a little Treasure Chest Box yesterday to hold tags. It turned out really cute. Now, I think I'll make one for Christmas tags.
