Trail Mix Energy Blend

5 from 1 vote

When I was going to college, I liked to snack on a "trail mix" that I picked up from the cafeteria. It helped energize my mind and body between classes. This Trail Mix Energy Blend is one I made later in life when our family went on camping trips, which always included lots of afternoon hiking.

Gather all your ingredients so that you have everything close at hand on the counter or table.
Mix 15 oz. mixed nuts, 15 oz. Reese's Pieces, 12 oz. dried bananas, 10.7 oz. M&M candies, 7 oz. yogurt covered raisins, 6 oz. coconut slices, 4 oz. dried cranberries, and 3.5 oz. dried blueberries together in a large bowl.

Notes

This snack mix is very mix-and-match friendly. If you don't care for one of the ingredients, simply substitute something else in it's place or leave it out. The large pieces of coconut is something new I found at the store. We love them!
