I went to Marion, ten miles away

Healthy depends on how much and what kind of sweetener and oil. Hubby loves it and it is good for him.

Well that is a good thing.

I will make a small batch without nuts for the one who does not like nuts. I use whatever nuts I have on hand. I mostly have walnuts though. I remember walnuts used to burn my mouth and that may be why she does not like them.

@GardenGerty Were you eating poison nuts?

I hate it when I forget just that one thing. You make granola in a low oven. Start with whole oats, and add other seeds, nuts and grains. I often put coconut in. Lots of recipes online. When you have your oats and things combined, add oil (vegetable oil or coconut oil or whatever you have) and sweetener-honey, molasses, maple syrup, brown sugar, whatever. Toast it, stirring every 20 minutes. When it is golden and crunchy, add dried fruit and then scoop it into a sealed container. If you put the fruit in while it toasts it gets overdone and bitter.

@GardenGerty Thank you. I'll try this some day. It sounds very tasty and healthy.

It isn't that hard. I like customizing it.

It is a cereal that can be eaten hot or cold. It has a base of oatmeal, plus seeds, nuts and other add ins. Stir oil and sweetener into it, toast it is a low oven until brown. Serve it with milk either hot or cold.

Hubby eats it most days for breakfast.

Walnuts used to burn my mouth. I understand where she is coming from.
