Quick & Healthy Granola Recipe (Delicious!)

One year I received a jar of this granola as a Christmas gift from one of my preschool students. So thankful the mom attached the recipe because it’s delicious. This is a super quick, throw together type of granola – just dump and bake! I love those types of recipes.

Here are your ingredients: oats, almonds, quinoa, wheat germ (or I used flax), pecans, mini chocolate chips, honey, oil (I used coconut), vanilla & cinnamon.

Mix oil, honey and vanilla with a fork. You can use vegetable or canola oil but if you are using coconut like I did then you’ll have to heat it a little bit until it melts and becomes liquid, then mix in with the honey and vanilla.

In a separate large bowl mix together all the dry ingredients (except chocolate chips) then add your honey mixture. Mix well to coat and pour all of it onto a lightly greased baking pan.

Bake that goodness for 30 minutes, tossing every 10 minutes.

Cool, mix in the chocolate chips and eat!

I love this granola sprinkled over greek yogurt and fruit – the perfect snack!

Simple Snack Idea: Herbed Snacker Crackers

By

I had a friend in elementary school who used to bring this snack to school. I remember looking at it coveting the smell and the buttery looking texture. One day she gave me some to try and I couldn’t believe how delicious these little homemade snack crackers were. Every once in a while I would remember that snack and wonder how her mom made it. Lo and behold I was recently paging through one of my most beloved cookbooks, found myself in a section I rarely go to and there, there was THE recipe! I couldn’t believe my good fortune. Lucky for you I am going to share it!

This recipe couldn’t be any easier, kids can make it and there is no need for a stove or oven – BINGO!

Here’s your short list of ingredients: Oil (I used olive), garlic, oyster crackers, salad dressing mix, dried dill & granulated garlic.

Measure out your oil and add a thinly sliced garlic clove. Allow the clove to sit in the oil for about 30 minutes, discard the garlic and save the oil.

Pour crackers into a medium bowl and sprinkle the oil throughout, stirring occasionally.

Combine seasoning packet with the dill & granulated garlic, sprinkle onto the oil-covered crackers, stirring often.

Allow crackers to sit for about 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to keep the crackers evenly saturated.

That’s it! Store in an airtight container (If they make it that long!).
