On the Go Snacks

On the go snacks are great for quick pick me up in between meals & to keep your metabolism flowing. Here is an idea that you can portion into small zip bags & keep at home or in the car for kids & adults “on the go“!

2 cups chopped walnuts, preferably toasted
1 cup dried, unsweetened cherries, raisins or cranberries

VERSION ONE: Combine the ingredients in a medium bowl. Portion 1/3 cup servings into snack-sized sealable plastic bags. This recipe is perhaps the simplest of all and it is amazing how much it tastes like ice cream!

VERSION TWO:Place nuts on a baking sheet & roast at 375 degrees for about 8-10 minutes or until toasted but not burned (check often after the 8 minutes) Cool & combine the ingredients in a medium bowl. Portion 1/3 cup servings into snack-sized sealable plastic bags.
