A recipe for Nick's Trail Mix

This is nice to take along on a hike, when you go camping, for a day at the beach, a long trip in the car or on the train. You can make it by the serving or you can make it by the ton, I give relative proportions. My recipe follows:

• 1 part dry roasted peanuts
• 1 part mixed nuts (any kind you like)
• 2 parts chocolate bits
• 1 part raisins
• 1 part mixed dried fruit (any kind you like).

How to make :

• 1. Mix everything well in a bowl

• 2. Seal in closable plastic bags (Ziploc (tm) type are perfect!)

---

Notes :

• 1. Mix and keep dry. Perfect for trips because this does not require refrigeration and is nutritious.

• 2. Make several packs for all your traveling friends, too!

• 3. In HOT climates, use chocolate adapted for the area or substitute M&M brand (tm) candies.

• 4. In HOT climates, use salted nuts, if desired.

• 5. Modify as needed for special diets, i.e.
  • sugar free chocolate for diabetics,
  • no salt for high blood pressure,
  • etc.

• 6. Add dried meat or fish, i.e.
  • beef jerky,
  • dried squid,
  • etc.
  and some crackers or bread, juice or bottled water and you have a complete meal, ready to eat.
