Healthy Granola That You Don’t Have to Make Yourself (& Makes A Better Cereal Than Honey Bunches)!
February 25, 2015
Good-morning girls!
It’s Wednesday, you’re halfway through your workweek, and I’ve got a pick-me-up to share with you.
Last week, I received a special package from Golden Girl Granola. They sent me free ‘nola, without even asking if I’d review. Of course, I can’t NOT review this because you girls need to know about it.
Now, I’m all-about mostly-about homemade food… but sometimes… I just don’t want to use my time cooking every-single-thing from scratch. So when I find great, already made go-to’s, I’m happy!
I’ve been eating this granola for breakfast, dessert, &/or just a hold-me-over until dinner on a long workday (I like doing this with my Green Smoothie, too!). It always leaves me feeling satisfied, & I don’t need much! My favorite way to have it is in a coffee mug half-full with whole milk… Yum!
I asked to try 4-flavors.
If you like blueberries & a little bit of “chew” to your ‘nola. YES.
If you like it sweet (without all the added sugar). YES!
I love making a smoothie in a mug (2 bananas, 1 cup blueberries, 2-3 cups spinach, 3/4 cup plain greek yogurt, about 1/2 cup NON-GMO soy milk, + 2 T. flaxseed – serves 2!) & sprinkling this honey nola right on top! SO good!
Tip when using less liquid – first blend the banana, spinach, and soy milk. Then add in the frozen blueberries. Then the yogurt. Then the flaxseed 🙂
If you like a much better version of Honey Bunches of Oats. YES! (YES! YES! YES!)
If you like it simple (and like Almond Joy – that’s what this reminded me of…!). YES! Add a few dark chocolate chips :).
Not a single one let me down. The Maple is my favorite, and I will definitely be a regular customer!
Now, to get one of you started, I asked if I could hold a Giveaway, and they said YES!
The winner will get not one… but FOUR full bags of granola! Girls, this is amazing!!
