This recipe is simple and delicious!
If you’re looking for a healthy grab on the go snack or something to add to your morning yogurt this is perfect. Although I cannot take credit for this recipe, I came across it on pinterest from (cookeatpaleo.com) She called it Cranberry Walnut Paleo Granola but here I just referred to it as Walnut Granola because I like to swap out the cranberries for chopped dates, but you can use some other kind of dried fruit of your choice!
Its naturally gluten free, and contains plenty of essential fatty acids, protein and good amounts of calcium, iron, zinc, vitamin E and some B vitamins.
