good granola is great unless you have cut your water out , then second serving on is like eating glass !!
I like taking a cup of dry instant oats and adding natural honey to it till it's all stuck together and can make little "dough balls" out of it , a cup of oats and 3-4 table spoons of honey is about 100g carbs , reasonably easy to get down with little water and digest easier than 2 cups of oats or granola , I find that if I ate just things like rice cakes and granola I ended up with bad gass from not having enough water to digest it all , the simple sugar from the honey or even jelly helps prevent this.
I'm planning to use white rice and either jelly or honey hoping it'll fill my carb stores , and digest easily so I don't end up with a destined belly and gas.
