Chocolate Almond Crunch Granola

Naturally sweetened with honey, this granola recipe offers the decadence of chocolate without much guilt! Make sure the granola has cooled completely before adding in any chocolate chips, otherwise it will become a gooey mess. Store in air-tight containers and keep using as toppings for yogurt, ice cream, or desserts for up to a month.
