HOLT  Notes: Work Time: 5 minutes, Total Time: 30 minutes. I have a
friend  who eats the most sugary, artificially colored and flavored
kids'  cereal for breakfast every day, and she claims it is healthy.
"It's  fat free and vitamin enriched," she protests. I tell her she
might as  well have a glass of milk, a lollipop, and a vitamin pill
instead.  Healthy? Well, yes, no, and sort of. The milk, especially if
it is  low fat, is a great source of protein. The lollipop, low fat or
not,  is just empty calories. And the vitamin is just meant to
supplement  an already healthy diet. If you are a cereal fan, beware of
commercial products. More often than not, the first or second
ingredient is sugar. My homemade granola is a perfect alternative. It
is rich in fiber, protein, and the antioxidant vitamin E. By making
your own, you not only customize it to your taste, but create a tasty
treat that is far lower in cost than supermarket cereal. While you  may
be surprised to find that this cereal has a few more calories and  fat
grams then some store-bought brands, you'll find that it "sticks  to
your ribs" better, so you'll be less hungry throughout the day.  Recipe
