I started making this granola years ago. I’m not sure how I came up with the ingredients but they work. A number of granola aficionados have asked me for the recipe so I figure that’s a pretty good sign. I stopped eating it for awhile – I suppose because I got really into the dulse for breakfast – but Bekah got me back into it again. Topped with a little soy yogurt and berries, how can you go wrong?

6 cups oatmeal

1 cup wheatgerm

1 cup sunflower seeds

1 cup sesame seeds

1 cup flax seeds

1 cup chopped almonds

1 cup chopped pecans

1 cup safflower oil

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup honey

1 tsp vanilla

1 tsp sea salt

Mix dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. Bring wet mixture to a rolling boil on the stove. Toss wet ingredients into dry. Spread on 2 cookie sheets and bake at 350 degrees until golden brown.
