Choose Granola - A Whole-Grain Meal or Snack
Crunchy, wholesome and delicious this granola is a real homemade treat. Eaten out of hand, served as a cereal, or sprinkled on yogurt, granola adds whole-grain nutrition to any breakfast or snack. Granola is versatile and customizable. If barley or rye flakes are not available, substitute an equal amount of old-fashioned rolled oats. Chopped pecans, almonds or hazelnuts can be used in place of the chopped walnuts, and dried fruit such as cherries, blueberries or cranberries in place of the raisins.
