Things to eat with granola for breakfast?

What to eat with granola besides yogurt?
- add a handful of granola to your cereal for an extra crunch
- top your pancakes with fresh fruit and granola
- add granola to your oatmeal
- sprinkle some on your acai bowl
- a little on your french toast goes a long way
