I don't think I could eat the whole thing at breakfast, but it's a good idea for a weekend brunch!

yummmm! This looks incredible. I wish I liked cantaloupe, is there another fruit I could use instead?

I love this combo, but instead of yogurt and granola I use oatmeal cooked in water and topped with almond butter. Anyways, I just thought it was interesting that the only 0.1g of saturated fat comes from the cantaloupe. I know it's just a trace amount and nothing to worry about, but I wouldn't expect it to be found in fruit.
