Trail Mix

Most of you know how to make this, but I thought I would post it anyway. In our house, this is a staple that we try to always have on hand. Here is an example of one kind that I make.

1 cup raw almonds
1 cup raw pecans
1 cup raw cashews
1 cup organic raisins
1/2 cup organic craisins
1/2 cup dried organic blueberry or cherries (or both)
1/2 cup carob chips or dark chocolate chips (optional)

You can also add raw pistachios, raw walnuts, and any other kind of dried fruit. We buy most of our raw nuts at Trader Joe's, but you can also get them in bulk at most grocery stores or Target. Be sure to read the label carefully so they are not loaded with bad for you oils or salts! This snack is filling and healthy! I put them in snack size ziploc baggies so we can take them anywhere!
