Low-Fat Citrus Granola image

I love this granola. It's not too sweet and has a nice citrus taste to it. It's great to give as gifts in a nice jar or plastic bag. My kids love to snack on it dry. Adapted from the Best of Bridge recipe book.

Made this granola last weekend and it was a hit! The citrus flavor is so refreshing and it's not too sweet. I also love that it's low in fat and has a good amount of fiber. Will definitely be making this again.
