Snack Mix

I have discovered a new website that has yummy HEALTHY recipes on it. Eat Better America you can choose from all kinds of recipes and they even have coupons that you can print out - I LOVE COUPONS!! I have made a few dishes and only one was a dud - The Lime Chicken it was not good - too much citrus. Anyway I love that trail mix that you can buy with the M&M's and pretzels but it isn't very healthy and it contains peanuts so poor Quentin can't have it as he is allergic. On Eat Better they had a recipe for Snack Mix - I made it (it was a lot cheaper than buying it from Sam's) here is the recipe try it out or check out the website and find some other yummy healthy recipes to try!!

4 cups Cheerios
2 cups pretzels or oyster crackers or popcorn (we used the pretzels)
1/2 cup peanuts, raisins, miniture marshmellows or M&M's (we did a batch with peanuts and one without and used the M&M's -0f course)

Mix all ingredients in a large bowl or ziploc bag and then store in an airtight container!

With the Holiday M&M's that always are out in the different colors you can change it up when you make it! And you can choose whatever type of Cheerios you want - Quentin wanted Fruit Cheerios for his snack mix and I used the honey nut for our snack mix - the possiblities are endless!!!

ENJOY!!!
