Breakfast ALERT!

I was inspired by my good friend Micah to try making granola and eating it for breakfast after my work outs! It was so fun to make and I look forward to enjoying a healthy home made breakfast every morning starting Monday!

Here's the recipe I made up by somewhat following Micah's recipe (didn't have the same ingredients but made do) but it turned out amazing!!!!!

Mix dry ingredients
10 cups Old Fashioned rolled oats
2 cups coconut
2 cups honey roasted sunflower seeds
1 1/2 cups Wheat Bran (wheat germ) would be healthier yet.
1 1/2 cup Raisins (all I had)
1/2 cup flax (ground in coffee grinder)
1 1/2 Walnuts (ground)

bring to boil
1 1/3 oil
2 c. honey
1 TBS Cinnamon

pour over dry ingredients and mix well. Spread thin over cookie sheets and bake at 325 for 20-25 minutes 
I had this huge cheese ball container that I had saved and didn't even know what to use it for.. it's so big that next time I'm going to double this batch and it will all fit perfectly! 

I would have put more flax and sesame seed if I had them.  You can put whatever you want actually. You can put dry milk, craisins or other nuts or dried fruit that you like. I'll probably try something a little different next time just for fun!
