The Freshman Cook: Sierra Nevada Mountain Trail Mix

This week our side dish is a Trail Mix that just seemed like the perfect accompaniment to our roasted turkey picnic sandwiches. We had a few handfuls with the sandwiches, and then took the rest in our backpack as we hiked a few trails. What a beautiful day, and a welcome relief from the heat in the valley. I can see this Trail Mix being perfect as a after school snack or as a part of a buffet at a football party.

 Sierra Nevada Trail Mix

3 cups Unsalted Roasted Cashews

2 cups M & M’s

2 cups Craisins

1 cup Golden Raisins

2 cups mini Marshmallows

1 cup Banana Chips

Put it in a bowl and mix it up!! That’s it.

I put some in these little bags for our hike.

Enjoy!

Thanks for joining me today!

Tomorrow we will be making a dessert for our picnic and hike,

a S’mores Rice Krispie Treat!

It had to be S’Mores!! What could be more fitting?!

Stop by, and grab a bite!
