Granola has a bad rap.

Most store-bought are full of processed oils, tons of sugars, and ingredients that aren't recognizable by Mother Nature.

Many also have GMO's which wreak havoc on our digestive system and make pesticides even harder for the body to break down!

I have yet to find a legit granola I like.

So of course, I had to make my own! 

This is a yummy granola recipe I love to eat with a clean whole milk and 100% grass fed yogurt and then top it with fruit like sliced bananas and fresh blue berries.

It's also super yummy to just eat it like cereal with your homemade nut and seed milks! 

It's super quick to create and simple to throw together, bake, and enjoy.

Don't get too caught up on having ALL the ingredients. You can sub different nuts and seeds or just make it even more simple because sometimes less is more! 

Okay, let's do this!

Thanksgiving It's my absolute favorite holiday. 

Popcorn is one of those snacks that is irresistible to include in a family movie night or just to create a quick snack for you or your kids! 

I love to make a big batch on the weekend or before the kids get home from school, when they are always so HANGRY! 

Who doesn't love popcorn? There are actually some health benefits to this snack, but beware many varieties and packaged options are not healthy! 

First let's talk about the pros.... 

Is high in fiber, protein, AND carbs. 

High in polyphenols (super antioxidants) that make it relatively healthy.

Has many nutrients like manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, zinc, copper, vitamins B3 & B6 and potassium.

 While 90% of corn in the US is GMO, popcorn is not (at least for now)!

Now the cons...

There are some downfalls to previously popped packaged popcorn (say that 5 times fast!) which can contain chemicals and toxins that we really don't want in our our our kid's bodies.
