Trail Mix recipe

Hey there everyone! I am sorry for my long absence - but between living my life, and running four blogs, there are times when some of those blogs get posted on less!
We are getting ready to head out on the road for a family vacation, and we are really trying to limit the ammount of food we buy at convenience stores, and how much we eat out, and also trying to eat healthier than we usually do while traveling - so I am busy right now making food for the trip! I just made up my own trail mix recipe, so I thought I post it, even though it's super simple, and you can do pretty much anything you like, I'll go ahead and share how I made mine! I'm not a big nut person, but I need a lot of protien in my diet, so I try to eat the ones that don't make me gag ;) I chose peanuts and cashews, but do what you prefer! I also like dark chocolate better than milk, and it's better for you!

Trail Mix

1 cup salted Peanuts
1 cup salted cashews
1 cup dark chocolate M&Ms
1/2 cup dried cherries
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/4 cup plumped raisins

Mix all ingredients, and enjoy!


I might be back later today or tomorrow with a few more recipes I'll be making for the trip!
