My Dilemma is Over...

Do you remember this post...'I Need Help Please' *click here to see post* ...Well, I finally came up with a recipe using the Fiber One cereal!  It turned out perfectly!!! My family loved it and came back for more! This would also be great ontop of ice-cream! It's slightly sweet, crunchy and nutty! And healthy too!

2 Tbls. butter

1 cup assorted dried fruit- dates(diced),cherries, cranraisins

DIRECTIONS;

In a large microwave safe bowl, mix together the first 5 ingredients and microwave on high for about 1 minute. Stir well, then add the remainder of the ingredients and stir again to combine.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the granola mixture evenly onto the sheet.
