Healthy Trail Mix

With protein to stabilize blood sugar, lots of vitamins, minerals, and fiber, plus heart-healthy fats, trail mix packs a healthy punch! Nina’s Mix is my niece’s combination, my daughter Marea came up with the other tasty blends.

Clean It:

Try organic dried fruits to avoid fruits grown with pesticides and conventional fumigants used during storage.

Green It:

Avoid single-use plastic bags. Wash, air dry, and reuse your zipper bags -- or try small reusable containers that can tuck into lunchboxes or tote bags.

Make It Fun:

Make "trail mixing" a family project: Set out your selection of ingredients, along with a bunch of empty bowls, and let everyone create their own personal blends.
