WHO DOESN’T LOVE GRANOLA?!
I often crave granola with some fresh fruit & yogurt in the mornings. ♥
However, all I ever hear about is how much sugar is in store bought granola; because of this I tend to just settle on eating eggs & toast everyday, which can get pretty boring.
Keeping With The Cleanse
This last week I did a The Skinny Juice Co. 3 day juice cleanse and by the end of it I really felt like staying on the whole fruit & veg vibe for a few days after. I really didn’t want to buy granola for fear that it would basically just completely cancel out the whole purpose of the cleanse, being loaded with sugar & all, so I finally came to the realisation I just need to make my own!
Hunt, Gather, Create!
I went around the store & gathered all my favourite ingredients that I would love to have in my Perfect Granola, went home & created this DELICIOUS HOMEMADE HEALTHY GRANOLA RECIPE!
It is super clean, simple & fun to make! You can personalise it however you want, with all YOUR favourite ingredients!
