Walnut and Honey Granola

Walnut Honey Cranberries Crunchy Granola

I’ve always had to practically force myself to eat breakfast – I fallen into the typical Mum trap of surviving on strong coffee until about 11am. I would go berserk at my girls if they didn’t eat breakfast though. Time to lead by example?

I do have a few breakfast dishes that I really enjoy actually – when I was working in an office I used to take some crunchy cereal with some fruit and low fat yogurt and happily devour at my desk. I have stopped buying the crunchy clusters of cereal now though – I get tired of there being so few actual clusters and the remainder being dust at the bottom of the packet.

I never thought I’d hear myself say it but I prefer making my own Granola. Now before you think I’ve gone all healthy on you – give it a go. It is really crunchy but filling too. You definitely don’t feel like you are being made to eat dust!

    I always think that the reason granola fills you up so much is that it takes so long to chew! Yours looks lovely though.

    This looks yum, I need to start eating something healthier for breakfast. I just grab whatever I can! Usually a Jaffa cake 🙂
