A large batch of homemade granola made with whole nuts of your choice and naturally sweetened for a healthy breakfast or snack!

There are two things that can throw my entire day off… if I go to bed too late the night before or if I skip breakfast. I can overcome just about anything that gets in the way of my focus for the day like a change in plans, unexpected errands, or unplanned to-do’s on my list. But when it comes to skipping breakfast, I am doomed for the day. It is nearly impossible to stay focused and/or motivated to take care of what I had planned for the day much less handle what wasn’t planned.

It blows my mind how important breakfast is. I’ve skipped other meals and been just fine. But if I skip breakfast, it’s detrimental to my entire day! Don’t skip breakfast, people. It’s just not worth losing an entire day over!
