Eat Healthy – Live long, Live strong
1. On Friday I attended the grand opening of a brand-new Trader Joe’s location at Patriot Place… yep, right next door to Gillette Stadium where the Patriots play!

I have a few thank-yous to toss out there for this recipe. First of all, a thank-you to Michelle of Lucky Taste Buds for masterminding the Peanut Butter Jelly Banana Bread recipe that I changed only slightly (I added vanilla and cinnamon, used half the amount of sweetener, and opted for unsweetened varieties of both vanilla almond milk and…

I’ve been on a total macaroon kick since making the Coconut-Oat Macaroons and then the Lemon Coconut-Oat Macaroons. Unfortunately, my attempt at macaroon ice cream was a flop, but this granola fulfilled my expectations! The pre-baked granola mixture looks like the batter for those macaroons, no?

I went to hit “publish” for this post, and the entire content was inexplicably erased. Photos. Write-up. Recipe. Nutritional information. Gone.
