With spring slowly making its entrance, we are getting more nice days to adventure outdoors. If you are thinking of hitting the trail and need a light, delicious and nutrient packed snack to take with you, try this Chunky Monkey Granola. It is delicious, easy to make and most importantly, loaded with whole grains, healthy fats and protein to keep you fueled for your hiking adventures.

Granola bars are a staple in most households with kids. The downside to these packaged convenience snack items are that they are most often made with high fructose corn syrup or refined sugar and loads of preservatives. As health professionals we love to revamp recipes that are made with mostly whole food ingredients, but still taste delicious!
