Fun Ideas
I like to make a big batch of my favorite Crunchy Homemade Granola and freeze it in baggies. It usually lasts for a couple of weeks without refrigeration. However, I prefer to keep it in the freezer and take out what I need. You can use it on granola, fruit, or just eat it right out of the bag.
One of my favorite breakfast foods is a yogurt parfait. I have tried so many different types of yogurts but I keep going back to the greek yogurt. Berries are my favorites to use in yogurt parfaits because they are loaded with antioxidant properties. You’re gonna want to try my crunchy homemade granola today!
