Homemade Medjool Date Trail Mix
-This delicious Paleo alternative is the perfect on-the-go snack for hiking, road trips, or just plain busy days.-
If you know me, you know that I’m obsessed with snacks {mostly bedtime snacks} + admittedly have them most nights of them week. I’m not overly proud of this habit I’ve created, however it hasn’t caused enough of a stink in regards to my overall health to warrant ridding myself of it…yet Now, I’m not saying that I toss back an entire bag of almonds or down a whole dark chocolate bar to satisfy this craving, but I do have a small bowl of trail mix or the addicting {Paleo Snack Mix} once I’ve cleaned my plate at night;)
Not only is this a new recipe that I can add to my Trail Mix Collection for nighttime snacking, but it is absolutely perfect for a Paleo-on-the-go option. Life gets crazy between work, appointments, kids, making dinner, hitting the gym, our daily tasks are endless {at least that’s how I feel} + sometimes you’re not exactly prepared for hunger every time it strikes. So, throw together this quick + easy Homemade Medjool Date Trail Mix + keep a jar in your car, gym bag, or cubicle at work for a nutritious snack at any time!
