I am a big fan of having snacks on hand that I can justthrow in my bag and take along with me. That being said I have a strong historyof having lots of pre-packaged and processed foods on hand. I was fooled by thelabels that made certain foods sound healthy but in the end anything you eatfrom a package is never going to be as good as something you can make on yourown.

I have created a trail mix recipe to share here. It is likelya familiar mix but since it is homemade you have quality control over where youget all of the ingredients you use and you can add more of less of anyof the ingredients.

This is a great high protein trail mix. Trail mix is anawesome snack for when you are on the go and just need something to munch on.It travels well and you can easily control how much you want to eat withoutworrying about re-packaging the leftovers.
