If I remember right raisins are not ok?? Anything else in it that isn't appropriate? I thought it sounded good.

Well....I'd love to say yes but the biggest problem with this recipe is the dried fruit. They are calorie and sugar dense! Dried cranberries actually have added sugar.
Why not try to make your own mix with old fashioned rolled oats, almonds, Splenda and real fruit? I beleive there's a "granola" recipe in the Phase II breakfasts. Take a look. Sorry but I'm on my way out right now.
