EASY recipe...

I found a recipe for HOMEMADE GRANOLA that is super FAST and super EASY! I found it on www.cooks.com and then added a couple things. This only takes five minutes, and you do it the microwave! It turned out great, and even Macie LOVED it. And the best part is that it makes your house smell DELICIOUS!

Easy Homemade Granola

2 C rolled oats
2/3 C nuts, chopped
1/4 C brown sugar
1/4 C honey
1 tsp vanilla
1/3 C dried fruit
dash of salt
dash of Cinnamon
*opt-coconut*

In a large low dish (8x11") Add oats, nuts, brown sugar, honey, vanilla, salt and Cinnamon. Stir together and microwave on high for 2 minutes. Stir, and microwave 2 more minutes. Stir, and microwave 1 more minute. Take it out and stir in fruit and coconut (if you have it) and let cool completely. Store in an airtight container.

*This is good on its own, with milk, or on yogurt. This time I used almonds and raisins, but I think it would be really good with any kind of nut and fruit mixture. I can't wait to experiment:)
