Granola Girl.

I can honestly say I have never bought granola, besides maybe in a Kashi cereal box. I just never had an interest in it, but lately I am trying to find more healthy snacks and looking for something my kids would eat too. I stumbled upon a great site on Facebook, www.100daysofrealfood.com and am loving it! It's so simple and a lot of times I do eat like this (avoiding as much crappy processed food as possible), but then sometimes I look in our cupboards and they are filled with packaged bars, cereals, crackers....anyway, I want to get back into making a lot of our own food at home. It makes me happy doing this and before Evie was born I was trying several new recipes a week, lately, not so much and there are several days where I will realize we haven't consumed a single healthy thing. Yuck. So I decided to give this granola recipe a go and it is fantastic!! I have been putting it on yogurt every single day, and Miles even had a bowl of it for breakfast. Next time I may skip the cashews so Evie can eat it without me being a nervous wreck. It makes a lot of granola too, so I gave half to a friend to try. The house smells delicious while it's baking. Perfect for a fall afternoon at home.
