Healthy Resolutions. There’s no better time than the New Year to put our best foot forward in trying to swap out some bad habits for some good ones. I love to snack and rather than reaching for the potato chips and ice cream, how about a Simple Homemade Trail Mix? I love trail mixes. The sweet, salty and crunchiness. The best part of this trail mix is the new Dove® Whole Fruit Dipped in Chocolate… Oh my yummy goodness.
Simple Homemade Trail Mix
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup Cheerios
- 1 cup Roasted Peanuts salted or unsalted
- 1/2 cup pretzel sticks broken in half
- 1/2 cup almond slices
- 1 bag Dove® Whole Fruit Dipped in Chocolate cherries, cranberries or blueberries
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine all of your ingredients.
- Store in an airtight container.
Have you ever seen the movie, “The Mirror Has Two Faces” with Barbara Streisand and Jeff Bridges. There is a scene about the “perfect bite.” I’ll never forget that scene, as it is one of my favorites. The entire time I was munching on my homemade trail mix, I was sure to have a little of everything (the peanuts, almonds, Cheerios, pretzels and Dove® Fruit Covered Chocolate) to ensure I had the perfect bite. It was delicious and had the perfect mixture of what I expected. Am I a little crazy? Probably. Watch the movie!! {giggle}
Anywho, I love Dove® Dark Chocolate and having the option of whole pieces of fruit dipped in their delectable dark chocolate, well, I’m tickled silly. Available in three varieties of real, whole fruit – cranberry, cherry and blueberry.
I used the cranberries in my trail mix — and it was the perfect snack to keep on-hand while working!
What would your preferred #DoveFruit flavor be?
Care to stay in the loop? I’d love to have you!
