Trail Mix Your Way
Trail mix is good to keep in a bowl or jar for a quick scoop when hungry. Trail mix provides energy with plenty of carbohydrates supplied by grains and protein from the nuts. A little sugar helps the energy go down! Its also handy as a school snack in the lunchbox. Truly, you can mix and match however you like, using this as a starting place…
