killer healthy granola recipe

I've made this Power Granola from Cooking Light a few times and it turns out pretty well. I usually go lighter on the brown sugar since the orange juice helps to add sweetness as well! http://find.myrecipes.com/recipes/recipefinder.dyn?action=displayRecipe&recipe_id=1054879

NYC Wine Bars!

One wine bar I would definitely say to AVOID is Bellavitae on Minetta Lane- it is a New York magazine Critic's Pick. I saw great reviews online and decided to try it a few months ago..not only was the service atrocious (ie. we ordered a bottle of wine which they took "to chill"..and didnt bring it back until we asked multiple times!) but the food was awful. Everything was fried, greasy, and unappetizing...and it was not cheap.

Mostly vegan and healthy eating websites

101cookbooks.com is a great one- all of her recipes are vegetarian and the vast majority are vegan. The recipes are very clean, healthy, and have gorgeous pictures to go along with them!

I would also recommend mediterrasian.com. Though not all vegan recipes, they are all healthy recipes focusing on a Mediterranean and Asian diet and style of living. The website is more of a lifestyle website- which sounds like it might be good for your friend!

Fage and...?

blackberries, strawberries, and homemade granola. or bananas with granola-- for breakfast. I'll also use it in place of mayonnaise in chicken salad.
