That said, I still try to find ways to make our meals healthier. Healthier doesn’t mean teenie portions or a meal that leaves you hungry.[Tweet “Honey Harvest Granola with Dried fruit is #healthy and tastes delicious! #cooking #foodie”]

Two small jars of granola sit in small jars with a larger tin of granola in the background. Dried apples, cherries, and nuts sit in the foreground.Almost every morning I have yogurt topped with Vanilla Nut Granola for breakfast. I’ve found that if I just eat the yogurt I’m hungry after a couple of hours. Not so if I sprinkle some granola over the top. John doesn’t like raisins so I decided that I would make a granola that he would enjoy. This granola is so full of fall inspired dried fruits, seeds, and nuts that it will keep him satisfied all morning long.

I also love yoghurt with granola for breakfast. I have a similar Nut Crunch recipe, but I've not used rolled oats in it... will need to try that! Thanks!
