It's pouring rain here, a good morning for cooking. I like keeping snacks around the house that have seeds, nuts and whole grains. They fill me up, have lots of protein, and I try to sneak them into my children's diet as well. Sometimes successfully, sometimes not.
So this morning, I made granola. I love this recipe and make it all the time. It's not too sweet , just nutty, wholesome and delicious as cereal or on top of plain yogurt.
Then toasted tamari sunflower seeds. I got this recipe from my mom who puts them in salads. Really easy, really good.
Then maple glazed walnuts. I got this recipe from 3191. Again, easy and good. Dangerously good. I have to limit myself to just a few at a time now, because the first time I made them, I ate almost the whole batch myself.

Nice! I love granola so much. A few months ago I found a peanut butter granola at the store and cannot get enough of it. It is super spendy though. I wonder if I could find a recipe for peanut butter granola.....
OMG those maple syrup walnuts are good! I just made them. I saw that 3191 recipe a couple weeks ago, bought the ingredients but didn't get any further - thanks for the push!
Homemade granola = perfection!
Sounds (and smells, virtually, but I can imagine) wonderful..! I love that you give us little glimpses into your life - simple, honest, and incredibly warm peeks. Thank you - I feel like I visited at your house for a little while.

So good Jill, it is best to keep our sprit up during so many gray, rainy days. Spring will come soon?
