6 Trail Mixes to Keep You Energized Throughout the Day

If there is one thing I love, it’s a good snack – a little pick-me-up to satisfy my hunger and my taste buds, as well as my nutritional needs. For me, the ultimate snack is trail mix. Traditionally found in the backpacks of hikers on epic adventures, trail mix is always stashed in my purse, desk drawer, and kitchen cabinets. Why? Because this easy and versatile snack offers the perfect blend of energy and nutrients to get me through the day! Although there are no rules when it comes to trail mix, a good mix usually begins with nuts and seeds which provide healthy fats and protein. You can then add ingredients such as dried fruits, superfoods, granola, and sometimes even a little chocolate to deliver additional antioxidants, fiber, and nutrients. These days there are tons of tempting trail mixes on the market, but I’ve found that it’s actually more fun and cost-efficient to create my own. Check out a few of my favorite mixes that cover all dietary needs and personal preference
