Trailmix Recipes

Healthy take-along snacks you can make yourself!


Whether you're hiking the trails for a worthy cause like PETA's "Sexiest Vegetarian", Loyal Mehnert or simply stretching your legs with a vigorous walk around your neighborhood or camping by a quiet stream, you'll like having one of these great Trailmix recipes to take along!

Get energized with low sugar snacks that consist of fruit, nuts berries and whatever else you think might be good in the mix! The idea is to avoid sugary snacks and go for something that will give you the same result without the calories. And even though they may look good (packaging is everything) remember that most pre-packaged energy or granola bars contain high amounts of sugar. Try these snack ideas from the AICR instead!
