I’ve been wanting to make my own granola for a while now.. This  is my version. For the most part I usually play around with the ingredient ratios..so feel free to adjust the amount of nuts, seed and dried fruits.

4 cups oats
4 Tbsp Organic Coconut Oil**
4 Tbsp Maple Syrup
1 Cup Raw cashews**
1 Cup Raisins
1 Cup Mulberries**
4 Scoops Hemp Seeds**
1 Cup Shredded Coconut -big strips**
1 Cup Sunflower Seeds
Cinnamon + Himalayan sea salt

METHOD: Preheat oven to 300 degrees**
In large bowl-combine the oats w/ the Coconut Oil until well coated – add in maple syrup and mix well

Next, add in the Cashews, Sunflower Seeds, Hemp seeds, Raisins, Mulberries, Coconut Strips, Cinnamon, Sea Salt and mix well
Spread the Mixed granola onto a parchment lined baking sheet;  place in oven and turn down oven temp to 150 degree and bake for 35-40 mins – Depending on oven.. make sure to check granola as it is baking and mix well to get a good even bake on it.
>> oven temp’s may vary – I baked the granola for approx 40 mins -Check granola throughout to see if it’s crispy 😉

Sunday’s are a great day to get ourselves ready for the week ahead. This could mean prepping your meals for the week, doing a deep clean of your home, laundry, organizing your family’s lunches, and more. I like to do a variety of these tasks to prepare me for the week ahead so I am organized and ready to go. Here are my top 3 things I like to get done so I can set myself up for success in the week ahead.

Make a To-Do List: 

Writing out a ‘to-do’ list for the following morning will give you that head start as soon as you wake up for your day; this allows for greater success in completing those tasks that may of otherwise been neglected. Making to-do lists is a sure way to stay on the course of success.

Tend to Your Home:

To me, this means keeping your home and space clean and clutter-free. An organized space equals an organized mind – your focus and clarity will be evident in a clean organized space. This is especially important for those of us whom work from home; it is not ideal to be creative in a space that is dirty, cluttered and disorganized. I also tend to do most of my laundry on Sunday’s as it sets me up with more clean outfits for my week ahead + fresh linens** = better sleep, and it just feels nice to have everything clean and ready to go!

Meal Prep & Planning

A BIG  thing in my life is meal prepping and healthy foods..so I am often in my kitchen preparing wholesome healthy recipes and meals to take with me when at work or on the go. This not only saves me money – by making my own snacks and meals, it also is a much healthier way to eat. This way I won’t have to eat poor quality crappy foods when out because I have prepared my own to take with me or to have ready for when I get home. This is an important part of living a Holistic Lifestyle – it is all about prepping ahead of time so you can eat healthy and reach your fitness goals daily 🙂

Setting yourself up for success can be small weekly changes to your life that add up in a BIG way and you will see results by these small changes.

Happy Sunday All… **and stay tuned for my line of Organic Sprays coming soon**
