My family has always enjoyed this crunchy four-ingredient snack. When we go camping, each person includes one additional ingredient like mini marshmallows, corn chips or cookie pieces.

I wanted a great trail mix without all the preservatives of the commercial products, at a lower cost, that was shelf-stable as I was going to have to live off of re-supply packages for about 6 months. I incorporated pumpkin seeds, coconut, and semisweet chocolate for extra boosts of energy!

TRAIL MIX GRANOLA

I was on the look for a granola that my family would like. I was tired of buying expensive store bought stuff full of un-natural ingredients. I found several recipes and decided to combine them to create a cereal (yogur mix-n) my family would enjoy. This isn't too sweet and is just perfect for my family.
