Today’s kitchen tip is an easy one, but one I use all the time. I learned this tip from a friend, probably over ten years ago, and I have used it more times than I can count.

Chocolate chips and coconut combined in this homemade granola makes for a delicious breakfast treat! Whenever I have chocolate and coconut together it reminds me of a Mounds Bar, which is one of my favorite candy bars. Chocolate and coconut just go together so well.

This is a recipe that I have been making for years, probably close to 17 years. It is one of those kid friendly, inexpensive meals that freezes great and works well for taking to potluck dinners or to a friend in need.

Fried Cabbage and Kielbasa is an easy one pot meal.
