This ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS, wholesome cold cereal is even easier than granola, and it's filled with wonderful flavor and texture. I am going to make this once a week from now on...it is SO GOOD!! Recipe is from Light and Tasty's June/July 2005 issue. Cook time is chilling in the fridge. You can substitute other dried fruits or nuts: I didn't have any apples on hand, so I used raisins instead. YUMMMMM!!!!
