We all know granola is a favorite food for ladies who enjoy eating healthier options. After all, we’ve earned nicknames like “crunchy” or “granola mom” for a reason!
Granola used to be a healthy, homemade breakfast option made with natural ingredients. I loved eating granola in the mornings with my health-nut Dad when I was a kid, so for me it’s a breakfast treat tied to sweet memories.
Today’s granola, with the push towards packaged convenience foods, barely resembles my beloved cereal of years past. Reading labels on the granola at my local grocery store, all I see is a processed food packed with sugar, seed oils, and GMO ingredients.
As the years have gone by, granola has gotten less and less healthy and my waistline began to revolt against this high-carbohydrate food. I realized it was time to either give up granola, or make my own with more protein and fiber, and enjoy it in smaller portions. Of course, this crunchy girl chose the latter!
I began making this delicious homemade granola, and now I add Yonder Collagen - the easiest protein boost out there – to make it even better! I now limit it to a topping on my yogurt bowls rather than eating it as a stand-alone breakfast.
