granola giveaway!

As part of my New Year's resolutions, I am determined to do a better job of eating a proper breakfast before 9:00 a.m. For some reason, my breakfast routine has gotten later and later. I wake up at the crack of dawn, so to speak, to go running before my girls wake up. By the time I fix them breakfast, get them ready and out the door to school, jump in the shower, put Bea down for a nap and then sit down to my computer to work, breakfast for me just hasn't been a priority. It's not until 10:30 or 11:00 a.m. that my stomach starts to growl and then my whole day's eating routine is off.

That being said, I need something quick and healthy that doesn't take a lot of preparation. I am happy to report about the discovery of MixMyGranola – an online company that allows you to customize granola to your liking (I don't like granola that's too sweet!). I love that everything is all-natural and preservative-free. Check out their ingredients here.

In honor of a new year and eating healthy, MixMyGranola is offering our readers a granola giveaway. The winner will have $20 to customize their own granola exactly to their liking. Leave a comment below to enter. The winner will be announced on Monday.

I love granola! And I have the same problem of not eating breakfast until 10:30 or 11:00 because I'm trying to take care of everything else first.
