Very simple, very good granola
Pre-heat oven to 300.
On a cookie sheet, mix well:
5 cups of rolled oats (not the quick-cook type)
1 to 1.5 cups of slivered almonds
.5 to 1 cup of sesame seeds
1 cup sunflower seeds
several twists of pink sea salt
Drizzle olive oil over the top. Then drizzle either maple syrup or honey to taste.
Mix well.
Pop in oven for 10 minutes
Stir again and bake for 10 more minutes
Stir again and bake for a final 5 or 7 minutes. Be careful not to let the almonds get too dark.
(Total baking time approximately 25 mins.)
Remove from oven and stir and let cool.
When completely cooled, add in a good quantity of chopped dried slab apricots. (I like to use Blenheim from Trader Joe's.)
Store in a sealer container or ziplock.
Serve with sliced nectarines or peaches and milk.

Blueberry Pancakes and Vegetarian Sausages
For two people... (double if desired)
Heat a little olive oil in a medium frying pan. Put in vegetarian sausages and quickly brown the outside to get a good texture. Then turn down and continue to cook.
Beat 3 eggs.
Beat in 1 T olive oil and 1/2 cup milk.
Add in 1 cup Trader Joe's multigrain pancake mix.
Microwave a cup of frozen blueberries until slightly warm. (Or just use fresh.) Add into pancake batter.
Heat a large frying pan and add a dab of butter and spread around.
Ladle in four pancakes. Flip when the show little holes.
Makes about 8 pancakes.
Serve very hot with butter and real maple syrup and the sausages.
