occasional granola review: *new*(-ish) Cascadian Farm Ancient Grains Granola

This wasn't supposed to be my next granola purchase but sometimes things have a way of working themselves out. I checked the ingredients first: Is it sweetened? Yes, I just couldn't tell from the product name. What are the "ancient grains?" Quinoa, spelt, and Kamut khorasan wheat. Well, there was no reason not to try it. How was it? I'll be honest, I couldn't even find the quinoa, and I don't know the difference between the two wheats. One of them was puffy, though, and with the brown sugar flavoring tasted almost exactly like Golden Crisp. So that's a plus, right?

fun on a bun...

Technically, the bun is optional but I just have to recommend these Spice-Rubbed Chicken Breasts.  I thought it sounded like a different kind of chicken sandwich for me and I'd never made a rub before. I have plenty of recipes but none which triggered an immediate response of, "I must try this." Also, I'd never purchased cumin before. It smells like the primary ingredient in a packet of taco seasoning, so you can see why it would need to be balanced out with brown sugar. Actually, all of the spices work well together, even the little tang of thyme. I think I'll be trying it on salmon next.
