Trail mix is a simple snack to create and it takes less than five minutes to do. The best part about making your own trail mix is that you can customize the flavours. If you don’t like one dried fruit, you can easily swap it out for something that you prefer. You can make a different version every single time. Dried fruit will always be a base ingredient. They are a great snack for a hike or just for the mid-afternoon munchies.
