Ola Natural Granola Review and Giveaway!

The products I received from Ola!
I have always been really picky about granola.  It seemed to me that a lot of them are not very flavorful.  I have been on the search for a good granola for a long time.  I have given an opportunity to do a review for Ola Granola!  Let me just start by saying doing this review is the smartest thing I have ever done!
I received three 9oz. bags of Ola hand-baked granola and two 1oz. sample bags.  The three flavors I received are Vanilla Almond, Cranberry Orange Pecan and No Nut Vanilla. 
I received the samples and had to try them right away!  My favorite is the Cranberry Orange Pecan!  It has a ton of flavor!  My son tried the No Nut Vanilla first and took off with the bag.  I had completely forgotten he had it and when I remembered he had eaten half the bag!  My daughter likes all of them!  It's so nice when I see my kids enjoying a healthy snack!
All three of the flavors are 100% natural!  My favorite thing about Ola Granola is that I know every single ingredient in them!  I'm not guessing and wondering what certain ingredients are.
Vanilla Almond Granola Ingredients:  Whole Grain Oats, Almonds, Pure Maple Syrup, Wheat Bran, Whole Wheat Flour, Non-GMO Expeller Pressed Canola Oil, Pure Vanilla Extract, Cinnamon and Sea Salt!
Cranberry Orange Pecan Granola Ingredients:  Whole Grain Oats, Pecans, Pure Maple Syrup, Dried Cranberries (sugar, expeller canola oil) Wheat Bran, Whole Wheat Flour, Orange Juice, Non-GMO Expeller Pressed Canola Oil, Pure Vanilla Extract, Cinnamon and Sea Salt!
No Nut Vanilla Granola Ingredients:  Whole Grain Oats, Pure Maple Syrup, Wheat Bran, Whole Wheat Flour, Non-GMO Expeller Pressed Canola Oil, Pure Vanilla Extract, Cinnamon and Sea Salt!
SEE?  Isn't that awesome?  I can say and I know what each of those ingredients are!  I love that they use Expeller Pressed Canola Oil!  Since that is the only ingredient in Ola Granola I can see people questioning what it is, let me explain!  I love Expeller Pressed Canola Oil because it has been pressed from the seed using a combination of heat and friction.  This is a healthier way to extract the Canola oil.  Normally chemical solvents are used to extract the oil.  Doesn't the Expeller Pressed Canola Oil sound like a better alternative?

I can think of so many ways to use Ola Granola!  My kids and I love it on yogurt, eating with a spoon and milk, adding to other cereals, adding into recipes!  I like that the 9oz. bags are resealable!  The 1oz. bags are perfect for on the run!  I am looking forward to trying these recipes Ola has on their website!
