Now that Thanksgiving is over we can “officially” kick off this years Holiday Recipes & Traditions. Today we have the amazing Tara Janzen sharing one of her families treats.
Here’s my recipe “Holiday Granola.” I make two kinds, always a double batch, and put it in glass jars to give away to visitors. The problem, of course, is that it’s a little addicting!
