This week in the Kitchen, we learned more about whole grains and how we can make nutritious and tasty foods on our own!
We made granola in an electric skillet and which can also be made in a frying pan on a cook-top.
Make a batch of this granola – and use it multiple ways throughout the week. Eat it with milk for cereal, top yogurt, sprinkle over fruit for crunch, or eat it by itself as a snack.
