New favorite

Yogurt Parfaits.
My kids are asking for them every day now. Breakfast, snack, lunch it doesn't matter. I started making Laura's homemade granola. DELISH! And so so so so easy. So we do layers of vanilla yogurt, homemade granola and whatever fresh or frozen fruit I happen to have. We love them!! You should definitely make some too!


Homemade Granola
4 C Old Fashion Oats
1/2 C Wheat Germ
1/4 of a bag of Coconut (around 3/4 cup)
6 T Brown sugar (if you're watching your sugar intake, you can cut this down to 3 T)
OPTIONAL: you can add any kind of nut, cinnamon, raisins, sunflower seeds, banana chips, anything!

BOIL TOGETHER:
6 T Oil (you could cut this down to 4 and it still works)
4 T Water
1/2 Cup Syrup (you can use any kind you would like - corn, maple etc.)

Pour the liquid over the dry ingredients and mix together until it is all wet. Then get your hands in there to clump it up. Lay out granola onto a greased cookie sheet and bake at 275 for 20-30 min. You want the edges to be golden brown. NOTE: when you take it out it will still seem soft. It hardens as it cools.

ENJOY!
