Homemade Trail Mix
Feelin’ snacky?
MTMM recommends reaching for something high in healthy fats that will leave you feeling full and satisfied. Ideally, something that you’ve prepared yourself so that you can be fully in control of the caloric content as well as the ingredients used.
Commercial trail mix may seem like it’s just nuts, dried fruit and a few M&M’s. However in reality the nuts and/or seeds are often roasted in oils and the ratio of dried fruit and chocolates to the good-fat-filled nuts is a bit higher than it needs to be.
Counter this by preparing your own with raw or self-roasted nuts and seeds, a small amount of dried fruit or goji berries and a some pieces of dark chocolate.
