GUILTLESS GRANOLA
I got this recipe from a Weight Watchers forum before going gluten free and absolutely loved it. I would never have thought to make my own granola except for the fact that I was making muffins one day and the recipe called for a granola topping. I didn't feel like driving the two minutes it would take to get to the grocery store (plus store-bought granola can be high in fat) so I searched the web for a low-fat recipe and found this one. I tweaked it only slightly. I thought the idea to use couscous was a very unique way to add extra crunch. (NOTE: Cooking time updated based on SweetySJD's review - Thanks so much for reviewing!)

Steps:
- Preheat oven/toaster oven to 350. Spray a jelly roll pan or a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
- Combine ingredients in a small bowl. Using your hands, take a handful of the mixture and press firmly into a ball (if mixture won't form a ball, put back in the bowl and mix in 1 more egg white) then break the ball apart into pieces the size of popped popcorn; place on baking sheet. Continue until all mixture is squashed and broken apart, don't worry too much about making the pieces all even, the size variety is nice.
- Lightly spray oat clusters with non-stick cooking spray and bake for 20 minutes, stirring/flipping 2 or 3 times for even browning. Cool and store in an airtight container.
