The best part about making your own trail mix is that you get to decide what goes in it. Don't like coconut? Leave it out. Want more cashews? Put them in. Brimming with nuts and fruit, it's also a nutritious snack to keep on hand for children.
Ingredients:
1⁄2 cup unsweetened flaked coconut
1⁄2 cup unsalted roasted cashews
1⁄2 cup slivered blanched almonds
1⁄2 cup vegan semisweet chocolate chips
1⁄2 cup sweetened dried cranberries
1⁄3 cup chopped dried pineapple
1⁄4 cup unsalted roasted sunflower seeds
In a small skillet, toast the coconut over medium heat, stirring, until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside to cool. In a large bowl, combine the cashews, almonds, chocolate chips, cranberries, pineapple, and sunflower seeds. Stir in the toasted coconut. Cool completely before serving. This is best when served on the same day that it is made.
