Breakfast & Brunch
Blueberry Pecan Paleo Granola
I love homemade granola. I’m always experimenting with different flavors. Today I had some unsweetened dried organic blueberries, and I thought they would be wonderful with pecans and maple syrup. So here’s my latest granola recipe—blueberry pecan paleo granola.
Chocolate Chip Muffins

Pecan Chocolate Chip Coconut Granola
