High Protein Sweet and Salty Trail Mix


I am loving this trail mix concoction.  It's a great combination of sweet and salty!  I personally love to pick out the pumpkin seeds and dried cranberries and eat those together.  Great duo.  Then you can never go wrong with nuts and chocolate.  I know dried fruit has a lot of sugar and I know nuts are high in fat, but I think this is a better snack option than eating two or three of our favorite chocolate chip cookies.  But oh how we love those cookies.
