Combine both mixtures, pour into 2 13X9 inch pans and spread out into an even layer. Bake 45 minutes stirring every 15 minutes for even color. Transfer to large bowl. Add dried cranberries. Serve as a cereal or topping for fruit or yogurt. Its very good plain as well.

I like this nice,basic recipe. For variety, you can use different combinations of nuts and seeds, and dried fruit as well. This goes perfectly with homemade yogurt, and fresh fruit...yum!

Quite nice. I left out the coconut as I do not care for coconut.

Making it again!!!! Loved it. This time, I am making it with everything sans the nuts and I am adding Raisin Bran in lieu of nuts.
