Maple, Pecan, and Sour Cherry Granola   

Yogurt with Granola and Cherries with Kelapo Coconut Oil

My go-to breakfast is a quick bowl of fruit and yogurt topped off with some delicious, crunchy granola. It’s such an easy and nutritious breakfast when you’re on the go.

With Easter weekend right around the corner, I’m starting to plan out what delicious desserts I’ll be making for family and friends. Chocolate and coconut are two combinations that are a must have for me during Easter.
