Since going Primal<\/a>, I’ve been making batch after batch of this trail mix. \u00c2\u00a0It makes a great on-the-go snack, and now that I’m up most of the<\/span> lots at night with Slingshot, this has become my go-to midnight\/2am\/4am snack as well. \u00c2\u00a0I keep a container of this trail mix next to my rocker in Slingshot’s nursery<\/a>. \u00c2\u00a0At some point, I’ll need to cut back my consumption of this yummy treat to a more occasional occurrence, but as as long as my weight loss continues (I’m only 2 lbs from pre-pregnancy weight!), I see no reason to give it up! \u00c2\u00a0This trail mix tastes great,\u00c2\u00a0satisfies my craving for something sweet\/crunchy\/salty, gives me energy, and is full of those good fats that keep me feeling satiated until my next meal.<\/p>\n

There’s no real recipe here, just a list of the usual ingredients I throw together. \u00c2\u00a0Just use what you have on hand, and mix it to suit your personal tastes! \u00c2\u00a0Like it sweet? \u00c2\u00a0Add more dried fruit. \u00c2\u00a0Like it salty? \u00c2\u00a0Use salted nuts or seeds. \u00c2\u00a0(I typically use unsalted). \u00c2\u00a0Need your chocolate fix? \u00c2\u00a0Add some chocolate chips. \u00c2\u00a0I either use the highest quality chocolate chips I can find or I roughly chop a bar of 85% chocolate.<\/p>\n
