I eat this every morning, but have adapted it. I don't like the taste of the pumpkin seeds as I find them a bit woody, so I use sesame seeds instead. I also add a small handful of blueberries to the yogurt before pouring the oat mixture over and I think the result is fantastic - uber healthy and delicious :)

Sounds wonderful to me too. Love the smell of oats, cinnamon, nuts and roasting in the oven.

Megan - Hello, my dear! I love that you made this, and I'm so glad that you enjoyed. Your question is a tough one. Keep in mind that those measurements are approximate, that I measure my oats, seeds, and nuts by the handful. Perhaps I overestimated the measurement values?

Or maybe I'm just a big fat pig when it comes to cereal!

The next time I make this, I'll double check the actual amounts and update the recipe, if necessary. Then again, there's nothing wrong with a little extra to snack on throughout the day, right?

I made the granola this morning for a breakfast with friends - delicious! My only question is, how on earth can you eat that much in one sitting?! It looks like I have at least three days' worth here!

Hi, slowlikehoney and Sara. It's nice to know that I'm not alone in this State of Graze. Slowlikehoney - I'm totally feeling your go-to meal. I have been cracking an egg over everything these days. So quick. So easy. And sooo delicious. Though I realized yesterday that I had eaten six eggs in only two days, so I think I had better take a little break. Sara - Hooray for toast!! Glad to hear that you are keeping your peanut better and avocado separate.

Hi, Frenchie. That's some seriously high praise. Thank you. The chance to write is the reason I started Sweet Amandine to begin with, so your sweet comment truly makes my day.

And Shannalee, my dear. It's always a pleasure when your name pops up here. Thanks for your note, and for cheering on the everyday.

Just found this site, and am so happy I did. Love State of Graze... I do the same thing when I'm too busy for meals. I usually end up existing on various things spread on toast, usually peanut butter or avocado (but never together).

I tend to graze throughout the day as well. My big meals only occur when I'm out with friends. My go-to meal recently has been a toasted whole wheat english muffin with one slice of cheese and an egg. It fills me up all day long.
