Spreading the Love
A few weeks ago, at work, we had a little “ice breaker” activity in one of our big team meetings. We had to create our favorite brand out of play-doh. (Whatever that means.) I immediately decided on Love Grown Foods since they’re just awesome.
I was explaining to my co-workers why Love Grown was such a cool company, and everyone was intrigued! I ended up winning a Starbucks gift card out of the whole ordeal. Not bad, right? But that’s not all! I posted the picture to the Love Grown Facebook page, and they told me they would send me coupons for some free granola!
And then, they far exceeded expectations. They sent me two HUGE boxes of samples. There was seriously probably 100 mini bags of granola, plus big bags of each flavor, a t-shirt, a notebook, stickers, and tons of coupons! I was like a granola fairy, running around work, passing out bags of granola.
As if I didn’t already LOVE them, I just couldn’t stop smiling ๐
I’ve been eating this granola non-stop for the past couple of days. I have a bag in my desk drawer, and I’m pretty sure I eat a handful of it every 7 minutes.
Obviously, there are plenty of normal things you can do with granola. But I wanted to glam it up a bit… so I decided to play around with it. And add chocolate, because you really can’t go wrong when you add chocolate.
Prepare yourself for some addictive snacking.
Chocolate Granola Bark
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup granola (I used Love Grown Cocoa Goodness Granola)
- 2 tbsp unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1/8 tsp sea salt (do NOT leave this out!)
Love the idea are the chocolate granola bark-genius!
Granola! With thick yoghurt or almond milk ๐ When we were kids we ate Quaker Harvest Crunch with orange juice…weird but so good!
Granola by the handful is the best way to eat it! I totally agree that Love Grown Foods is a great company with amazing customer service–so important!!
If you really want to share the love, I’ll send you my address ๐ Haha…LoveGrown is seriously one of the best granolas I’ve ever had. Try sprinkling the chocolate granola in a jar of PB and spooning it to get it out. You won’t be sorry ๐
That is so cool!!!
I’m a huge fan of handfuls of granola over anything else!
Holy cow, I can’t wait to try this out.
I’m warning you… you’ll want to eat the whole pan ๐
That’s so cool of them! And I love the idea of that bark..but I gotta admit, I can’t remember the last time I did anything with granola other than eat it by the (many) handful. I love making my own, because I know I’ll just eat the whole bag/batch/box/etc., so I can make a half recipe and not feel so bad about eating it all at once ๐
Hahaha yeah I definitely should have made a smaller batch… since it’s already half gone, in 12 hours ๐
Yumm that bark looks amazzzzing ๐ That was so nice of them. They seem like a really great company
Wow, looks like some fantastic loot you got there! What an awesome recipe! ๐
