The granola looks delicious! I can’t wait to try to make it!
The reason I’m posting is because of the Agave Nectar. A lot of people think that it’s good for your health and more natural compared to it’s alternatives. I saw your recipes and was reading through a book lately, “The Belly Fat Cure” and it has some pretty interesting things to say about Agave Nectar.
Fructose goes directly to your liver soon becoming fatty deposites which can lead to fatty liver disease. The fat streams into your bloodstream leaving fatty blood- high cholesterol.
The reason I’m telling you about frutose is because Agave Nectar has more fructose in it than high-fructose corn syrup. It’s highly processed, and it’s not natural or organic. Using it will trigger the same results as white sugar and high-frutose corn syrup. The author, Jorge Cruise, also said his doctor recommended avoiding it completely.

Our homemade granola recipes are very very similar – sooo yummy! I have a big, fresh bag of it in my cupboard right now =]

I make granola, soy/almond milks, bread, pizza crust, pasta sauce, powdered vegetable broth base, hummus, whatever. We buy very few prepared/processed foods. Cheaper and healthier!

It’s kind of amazing that as often as I eat granola, I’ve never made it myself! I’ll have to change that soon.
I always make my own hummus!

I make bread at home instead of buying it. Store bought gluten free bread is just plain NASTY!

There seem to be more and more items that I now make at home. I make a batch of soup every Sunday and take for lunch and freeze some. I bake my own bread. All my sweet treats are home made as well. I have even been making my own pumpkin puree instead of buying the canned. I figure since I have the time, why not?

I make my own pasta sauce. I guess I am a little spoiled because I am Italian and have never had sauce from a jar. It’s so easy to make it homemade and healthier too!
