"Like religion, politics, and family planning, cereal is not a topic to be brought up in public. It's too controversial." -Erma Bombeck, Housewife
This granola is super simple to make and fantastically healthy for you. It's best to use a non-stick cookie sheet or non-stick aluminum foil. If you use regular aluminum foil, let the granola stand for a few moments after coming out of the oven and any that is stuck to the foils will soften.
