Subj : Freezer Friendly - 23 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Mon Sep 19 2022 17:00:00 We’ll say it again: Make them foods they can eat with one hand. This chunky, chocolaty granola from Ali Slagle fits the bill and can be eaten out of hand, in a bowl with milk or over ice cream. For those with a sweet tooth, you can add mini chocolate chips or Cocoa Puffs cereal after the granola has cooled.
