Bulk Recipe: Sinfully Good Fruit & Nut Granola

So, I've finally started doing more of my shopping in bulk. It feels very good and easier than I imagined, but alas, what held me back is just that I needed to get my house and routines organized for ZW shopping. I'm still only 60% of the way to the mythical land of organized, but that's far enough to start getting the benefits of bulk shopping. So, today I made one of my favorite recipes from all bulk ingredients: sinfully good granola.
