Trail Mix & Match


Description

It can be hard finding snacks that are healthy and can be easily taken on the go, but luckily our dietitian, Autumn, has created four delicious different trail mixes! Check out her recipes below!


Ingredients

Heart-healthy: Ingredients like Walnuts and Pumpkin seeds are good sources of Omega-3’s – “the good fat” – which can help manage risk of cardiovascular disease.

1 cup of Pretzels – Low Sodium

1/4 cup of Walnuts

1/4 cup of Dried Cranberries

1/8 cup of Pumpkin Seeds

Blood-Sugar Management: Combining fats and proteins like nuts and seeds to carbohydrates like cereal and dried fruit can help stabilize blood sugars while meeting energy needs.

1 cup of Cheerios

1/4 cup of Almonds

1/4 cup of Peanuts

1/4 of Dried Banana Chips

Low-Sodium: Get creative with things like cinnamon, shaved coconut, garlic, or even a little cayenne pepper for a twist on your classic trail mix!
