This is an absolute staple in our house! Really, ever since the kids were little, I found that if you mix a bunch of healthy items in a bowl or a baggie, it’s just more fun to eat! You can’t deny that adults feel the same way. Why is trail mix so fun? If you don’t feel this way, then maybe it’s because you haven’t tried making it for yourself! I am a huge fan of having a snack like trail mix on hand at all times. It’s so easy to make up a big batch and then toss some in a baggie and run out the door. The best part about making your own trail mix is that there are no rules…no right way or wrong way. Just simply combine a bunch of your favorites (healthy choices please) into a bowl and snack away…(just don’t eat the whole bowl at once okay?) These were some of the items we had on hand today so that’s where this delicious combo came from. The creamy yogurt raisins are the perfect compliment to the cashews, banana chips and dried cranberries! Yum. We like to make up a big batch because this stuff goes quickly in our house. Now it’s your turn. Go get your creativity on and experiment away!
