whole lotta nuts granola


i first found this emeril lagasse recipe when working for a triathlete in austin as a private chef (hehe, more like glorified grocery girl). it was his favorite guilty pleasure, loaded with all kinds of protein & energy in the form of nature's candy, seeds, nuts & dried berries. really good sprinkled atop greek yogurt with fresh fruit & honey.  i'd double the recipe and take some home for my own cutie triathlete, td.  now my little one likes to help me make it... as if she needs any more energy.

mix, mix, mix that melted honey, butter & vanilla into the oats, nuts, coconut...

bake at 325, stirring every 5 mins for ~20 mins

keep it in a jar on your counter or in a baggie in your purse for a fun crunchy snack, by itself or on top of greek yogurt, ice cream, etc
