Apple Granola

I’m hoping you are all continuing to stay safe during this incomprehensible time. Today, I’m sticking with another meatless recipe. I know many of us are running low on certain ingredients, or can’t find certain things at the grocery stores. One thing I’ve found is, the small, family-owned stores still have all of produce and meats I need. The bigger chain grocery stores do not have a lot of the produce and meats I need. We’ve been giving the majority of our business to the small stores for those needs since they are well-stocked and much less crowded. Many of them are even offering a curbside, contactless delivery of the things we need. I hope the stores by you are adopting those policies as well.
