Cran Orange Chai Granola
Granola is the ultimate snack food. Whether you eat it on-the-go in a baggy, in almond milk, or add it to yogurt, it’s a guilt free treat! Some of the ingredients in store-bought granola are scary because of the amount of sugar and preservatives that are harmful for our body. But, you can make a healthy granola right at home!
