Life gets busy with running kids to lessons and sports and just being a family especially for homeschooling families. This Nuts and Fruit Trail Mix only takes a few minutes to make and it’s full of healthy nuts which add good fat and protein, and some fruit for a great snack on the go. Do you have a favorite dried fruit or nut? Just add it to the mix.
This is also a great recipe for teaching little ones how to measure cups since all the ingredients are 1 cup each.
