Oh, LOVE home made granola!!!! It is so good. I like it best with yogurt. But, if I'm being honest, I generally just shove it in my mouth by the handful.

Similar to Bonita, I love it with yogurt! Throwing some berries or sliced banana in there is good too. DH has a couple of recipes for granola that he uses. Hmm, I think it might be time for him to make some more!

I love granola but the serving size is so small and the # of calories is so high.  I have major trouble with portion control because it's so delicious so I never buy it.  :(

One key is to make your own and not use oil. That keeps the calories relatively reasonable.
