I enjoy this granola recipe for breakfast. When I make this healthy granola recipe I often pour skim milk over it so I am sure to get plenty of calcium in my diet. My breakfast friend, however, loves this granola recipe when served over yogurt. She spoons out a small bowl of non-fat yogurt, and spreads granola and fresh raspberries all over the top. Delicious! No matter how you eat it, you are sure to love this tasty (and healthy) granola recipe.
