August 31 is National Trail Mix Day. Trail Mix is a combination of dried fruit, grains, nuts, and sometimes chocolate, developed as a snack food to be taken along on hikes. Do you like Trail Mix? I make my own Trail Mix. There are recipes on the internet for cooking it in the oven or microwave.
I shop at Sprouts ---often and normally will pick up a nice selection of different dried fruit and nuts...and just mix it all up in a air-tight container.... Yummy -- -No recipe needed here...just throw a large combo of it together... AND for afew less calories -- I will add air-popped popcorn to my trail mix. instead of all those nuts !
