They can eat it three times a day if they prefer because it has what they need to sustain them.
Kid’s Trail Mix Recipe – Super simple to make and perfect for on-the-go snacks! Ready in 5 minutes and easily customizable with all your favorite mix-in’s! Homemade trail mix is one of the easiest recipes for kids to make. My kids have so much fun choosing their favorite ingredients and mixing them together. Whole grain cereal, mini pretzels, toasted soybeans ('soy nuts') or air-popped popcorn will give you a dose of crunch to balance out the flavors and give your mix some extra texture. Cinnamon – Cinnamon is only really OK around the holidays, which makes it a bad trail mix ingredient for about 11 out of 12 months of the year. Peanuts – Come on. Peanuts just aren’t that interesting. They aren’t terrible, but you can do a whole lot better. There are 180 calories in 1 1/4 cup (1.1 oz) of Johnvince Foods Poker Trail Mix. You'd need to walk 50 minutes to burn 180 calories. Visit CalorieKing to see calorie count and nutrient data for all portion sizes. Walnuts and pecans. Walnuts and pecans are nutrient-dense nuts that promote both brain health and heart health. They're high in omega fatty acids, other healthy fats, protein, vitamins, and minerals, and they're also a good source of antioxidants and fiber. They're a great addition to trail mix either raw or lightly toasted in the oven.
Trail Mix Recipe
There are many variations to trail mix, but I like this one because it is what comes to my mind when I think of a traditional recipe for trail mix. All you will need are some peanuts, raisins, sunflower seeds, and of course (my favorite part) some chocolate coated candy. Yum!
To make this process even simpler and less expensive, usually at least one grocery store in town has a fantastic bulk section. Buy these ingredients in this section. It will save you some bucks and you can get exactly the amount that you want for your mix. For those of you who are watching your sodium intake, this mix still tastes delicious when using low or no salted nuts and seeds.
Not only is trail mix fantastic for hikes, it is a great snack to have at parties. Whether it’s a holiday celebration or getting together to watch sports, trail mix is always a hit. Place it in a bowl in the center of the coffee table and it will be gone within minutes.
You can even make a fun, festive trail mix recipe around Christmas with switching up the candy to red and green. Put that out and boom, trail mix has now become a new favorite added to the holiday munchies table. Nothing is better than trail mix to take the edge off of your appetite while you smell that ham or turkey roasting away.
If you happen to have any left over (which I doubt) it is also a great thing to stick in your kids’ school lunches or take to work for a quick snack. This, in my opinion, is a combination made in heaven.
