Introduction
This was my first attempt at making my own granola, because let's face it--that stuff is expensive at the store! You can use any combination of your favorite nuts, seeds and dried fruit, but these are my favorites.

I cringed at the amount of sweets in this, but it is really not as sweet as it sounds.Next time (and there will be a next time) I will add about twice as many fruits, nuts and seeds, since I really like them-then I'll have to re-do the recipe to figure nutrients again.I like the calculator, too. :) - 3/13/12
