Spring is here, at least for some of us. Some states are still being hit with inches of snow. I miss that part of the season. But, my husband doesn’t miss it at all. Hope that Spring starts blooming on the snowy states and give the surroundings some color. That is where this post comes into place. I am giving you all some color!!!!
This granola is a Spring inspired one with beautiful colors, perfect for Easter! And Easter is just around the corner. Making granola is so easy and this recipe can be changed. Everything from the nuts, dried fruits and even sweets can be altered for those of your liking.
Snack on some homemade granola and watch Spring move in.
