The trail mix looks delicious. I need to put them in individual bags like that because it's way too easy to eat too much. lol
This looks delicious Evelyn and a great on the go snack for the summer… pinning it….Cathy
YUM! I bet this would perfect for a hike or picnic. Looks delicious!
This will be perfect for Boy Scout camp outs!
This looks like a great combination of fun and healthy ingredients. I *might* add chocolate chips to mine, just because .. Well, chocolate. Ya know?.
I love the way you've portioned them out. Great idea, and it looks delicious. Thanks for sharing!
Great idea to have it packaged and handy!
Looks yummy! although, a few chocolate chips would probably still fall into mine. : )
Thanks for the tip! I enjoy trail mix and I prefer to not eat chewy bars, which are not as "healthy" as they claim to be because they're full of chemicals and preservatives. Simpler is better.
Evelyn, this is a great idea – I just eat a ton of Craisins and will mix up a great trail mix now! Thanks for sharing and pinning – have a happy Tuesday! xo
I love a trail mix with almonds and dried cranberries. The pumpkin seeds sound really good. I like the idea of pre-measuring/packaging because I know I;d eat too much!
