Whether you’re headed to the beach, back to school, or ready for football – crunchy snacks are a must! This month, the recipe redux is challenging us to show off our favorite healthy snack recipe with crackle and crunch.
Trail mix is my all time favorite snack. I love the mix of chocolate, nuts, and dried fruit. Although, I have to say, popcorn is a close runner up. Adding air popped popcorn to my trail mix was a no brainer. Not only does it add a salty crunch, but it also adds a serving of whole grain and fiber.
My healthy popcorn trail mix recipe is so easy to make. I can’t even call it a “recipe”. Simply add popcorn, nuts, dried fruit, and your favorite sweet treat to a bowl mix and enjoy!
