Trader Joe's GF Granola



Do you have a Trader Joe's anywhere close to where you live? I certainly hope you do! We are blessed to have both a Trader Joe's and Whole Foods in Nashville. I absolutely LOVE both stores. I do not eat organic 100% of the time but I do eat gluten free 100% of the time and the typical grocery stores just don't have a lot to choose from when it comes to gluten free items. Thankfully, stores like Whole Foods and Trader Joe's are geared toward the healthy alternatives in foods and therefore have a pretty nice selection of gluten free items.

One of my favorite items I have purchased recently is Trader Joe's Gluten Free Granola. My favorite is the cranberry maple nut. Yummy! I keep a bag at my desk all the time and grab a handful two or three times a day. Can I tell you the taste reminds me of Cracker Jacks? Yes, I'm serious.

Here is a list of the ingredients: Rice Bran, Raisin Juice, Honey, Dried Cranberries, Sunflower Seeds, Flax Seeds, Almonds, Pecans, Maple and Vanilla. Now tell me that doesn't sound wonderful??? It is...

Again, even if you do not have to eat gluten free, try this granola as a snack, on yogurt or in milk. It really, really is good!
