In case you missed my Facebook Live yesterday over on the MHS Facebook page I shared Healthy Travel Tips and made my Cherry-Apricot-Collagen Granola on behalf of Great Lakes Gelatin. Here’s the recipe so you can make it yourself. I hope you love it as much as I do. Remember you can use whatever dried fruits and nuts you like!

This recipe is super easy to make and it makes my kitchen smell wonderful. I’m definitely taking a batch with me when I head to Tokyo later this month. Eek!
What’s your favorite travel snack? What do you love to bake in winter?
I was able to view your FB live yesterday and loved that you featured this recipe. I can’t wait to try it!
Your FB Live was awesome (even though I saw it after the fact). I’m totally making this granola!!
Yummy! Looks so easy to make and healthy. I cannot wait to hear about the Tokyo Marathon.
I do love granola. The tart cherry sounds great in there
This looks amazing. I’m not the best in the kitchen so I shy away from difficult recipes but this looks quite straightforward to make! I’ll also take a look at the video – thanks for sharing!
Ooh this looks delicious! I still haven’t tried the Great Lakes collagen products.
