Quick, Simple, Frugal, and Good Granola
3 cups dry oatmeal
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup honey
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup wheat germ
Melt the butter in a 3-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add the honey and salt and briefly heat with the butter. Turn off the heat and add the oatmeal and wheat germ. Stir. Pour the mixture onto a greased cookie sheet. Spread the mixture out evenly and bake it at 350° for 10 minutes. Stir, Bake an additional 10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool. Store in an airtight container.
Note: Although this is good just the way it is, you can add nuts, fruit, or other ingredients, if you like. If you're adding dried fruit, it's best to stir it in after you're done baking it.
