We love making homemade trail mix. Not only is it healthier, but we can target it to what we need more of, such as protein, fiber, or healthy fats. We’ve previously shared these 15 healthy snacks for the whole family along with tips for storing snack for on-the-go. Below, we are sharing a high-fiber trail mix recipe and giving you ideas on how to make your own.
This grab-and-go high fiber trail mix is full of fiber-rich ingredients including nuts, dried fruits, and dark chocolate.
