Whether you are a busy mom, office worker, or athlete, trail mix is the perfect snack for you! It is super easy to make. Just grab a bowl, put in all your ingredients, mix it up, divide the trail mix into 2-4 oz individual snack bags or containers, and you’re done. It’s that simple.
Basic trail mix
- Pick a protein by adding 1 or more raw, unsalted nuts and/or seeds
- Add dried fruit made without sugar or by-products
For variety, try adding:
- Raw unsweetened coconut
- Raw cacao nibs
- Raw goji berries
- Raw mulberries
- Raw golden berries
- Unsweetened raisins
Our favorite mixture is mixing raw almonds, walnuts, and pumpkin seeds with coconut flakes, cacao nibs, and golden berries. This is a great sweet tart combination.
The delicious factor is only limited by your imagination. Get crazy and try some fun combinations, the flavor my surprise you!
Tips
Tip #1: Try dried raw mango or apple for a different flavor.
Tip #2: If you are eating this for energy prior to a work out, finish the snack approximately 20 minutes before starting your workout.
