Here is my really yummy granola recipe! This granola is a little scary because YOU make it as healthy as you want it or as horrible as you want it.. but here is how you make it healthy :)
2 cups of cereal (I use cereal with some nutritional value ex: Special K, Wheat Chex, Bran, etc.)
2 cups old fashioned oats
1 cup flax seed, wheat germ, nuts (pick any of them or you can mix them to make up a cup)
1/2 cup peanut butter
2/3 cup Honey
1/4 cup brown sugar
Mix the first 3 ingredients together in a large bowl. In a medium sauce pan, heat the peanut butter, honey, and brown sugar together. Heat until the sugar in dissolved and then pour over your dry mixture. Stir until coated well. Pour that mixture into a greased 9x9 pan and press down just a little. Cook at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes or until top is golden brown.
I usually add this to cereal in the morning, or yogurt, or pretty much anything. I love putting flaxseed in it because it keeps you regular. This stuff kicks your metabolism into high gear in the morning!
** Cinnamon is good for your metabolism so you could even sprinkle that on top
