I run every Saturday with a great group of women. We run anywhere from an hour to 3 hours or so and talk about lots of different things while we run. Actually, to be completely honest, we mostly talk about food. I’d like to say that we only talk about healthy food but sometimes the smell of a nearby doughnut store or someone cooking bacon gets pretty tempting. But a lot of the time we do talk about nutritious food. This recipe is from one of those times and was shared with me by one of my BRFs (best running friends), Monica.

Why do I not make homemade granola??!
That’s what I had to ask myself!

Looks tasty! I’m impressed that you and your friends can talk and run at the same time. 😉 I have gone running with my daughter, but I can only force out grunts in between breaths!
