Chunky Chocolate Hazelnut Granola

Chunky Chocolate Hazelnut Granola

December 12, 2017 1 Comment

Let's get one thing out of the way: this is not a virtuous, Monday morning, breakfast-after-a-workout type of granola. No. This is a granola for indulgent weekend brunches, a granola for dumping by the handful into a bowl of vanilla ice cream, a granola for eating at midnight straight from the ...

Let's talk granola bars. They are definitely a staple pantry item in our house. Alex and I often take them to work (the perfect portable breakfast with a piece of fruit!) and Owen likes to eat them as an after-school snack. As a certified grown-up, oh how I miss after-school snacks! When I was ...

Can I ask you all a very important question? Do you feel like boxed salad greens go bad at an insanely fast rate? Sometimes it seems like I'm not even out of the grocery store parking lot before there is a rotten leaf of spinach in there, poisoning the whole plastic clamshell. It drives me ...

I've come clean with you before about my love for vacuum-packed cooked beets. I know, I know, they are more delicious and less expensive when you roast and peel them yourself, but let's face it: beet cookery is a dangerous business. Every time I do it, I ruin either a manicure or a sweater. It's ...
