Whether you’re heading out for a hike or just need a quick bite on the go, this healthy trail mix is a must-try.
Since we have been homeschooling, the kids are making regular trips to the fridge during “break time”. I was looking for some healthy snack ideas to keep them going. As we are at home, this is the perfect excuse to have something with nuts.
Rummaging I found a whole selection of half-eaten nut, seed and dry fruit packets. So I decided to combine them into a tasty trail mix.
The ingredients below are what I had in my kitchen. Do not feel bound by them and throw in whatever you find in your cupboards. I like adding coconut shavings but these are completely optional.
Once made, this trail mix will keep for weeks in an airtight jar or container.
