Buy Maple Walnut Granola, 1 lb. Now
Wonderfully tasty granola, that arrived quickly. I've bought a few items from this company and have been happy with them all so far.This is a good all-around cereal, snack or for use in cooking. Cold with milk for breakfast, with warm milk for an evening snack or just plain as is for a quick on the go snack. I even used it in some muffins the other day. Versatile, good for you and tastes so good too.I ordered three packages of granola and expected all three to be equally tasty. They weren't. Since I cannot remember which one was not particularly good, I'm reluctant to re-order granola from this terrific company.Maple Walnut Granola, 1 lb.

I'm not a fan of granola by any means: at least not until now. I have tried making my own on many occasions but the mess, expense, amount of ingredients to keep on hand and the less than satisfactory results have pretty much turned me off. I purchased this product in 3 flavors as a last ditch effort: Cherry Walnut, Almond and Maple Walnut. They arrived together in 2 days, well packaged, fresh and crunchy. Did I mention FLAVORFUL? I am a true convert. This is the best. While I like all 3, my favorite is the Maple Walnut, followed by the Almond and then Cherry Walnut (mostly because the huge dried cherries taste more like golden raisins than cherries, but still very good. I should also mention that while the dried cherries are about the size of the bowl of a teaspoon and look like they are soft and pliable, they are very hard and take a lot of careful chewing, after which they become sticky. I didn't find that texture pleasant). And when the ingredients listed walnuts or almonds, I figured it would be microscopic smooshed up pieces mixed in so small I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a sesame seed and a piece of walnut or almond. BUT, the almonds are large pieces or whole almonds while the walnuts well, the walnuts are planet-sized: sometimes 1/2 of an entire walnut and there are tons of them in a single bag of this granola. The maple walnut is the only one I find a bit on the sticky side, but not like caramel popcorn sticky-just a bit tacky. I've already used this in yogurt, cottage cheese, oatmeal, as a snack in mid afternoon, in salads, pancakes and yesterday morning, I made Bisquick biscuits and added some of all 3 flavors as an experiment. The biscuits were marvelous. Now, if I could only remember WHAT I did so I can make them again with the same success! Try this. I don't think you'll be disappointed. If you are, you can send it to me!! :)It was excellent, chock full of walnuts, slightly sweet, and nutritious, but compared to other brandsI thought it was overpriced.
