Healthy Homemade Trail Mix

Hi Guys,  I am back again with a healthy snack for an afternoon snack  or 'Snacking On The Go'.  I know that many of us avoid fried unhealthy snack which results in overweight.  In order to have a strong metabolism and to prevent overeating,  it's very essential for us to munch on a healthy snack for every 3 to 4 hours.  But how do we do it with less preparation time but at the same time a healthy Option???  If you are at home, its very easy to prepare and have one, but what if you are  outside your home or at work.  I have this snack recipe which hardly takes time but at the same time very healthy.  So you need not carry something special for your kids when you are planning to go out and they would like to have a snack.  You need not spend time for this in your busy morning schedule. You can prepare this a night before and pack it in a Zipper bag. Now let us have a look at the recipe.

Ingredients:

Dark chocolate chips - 2 tablespoon
Walnuts chopped - 1 tablespoon
Almond chopped - 1 tablespoon
Whole grain cereal - 1/4 cup
Raisins - 2 tablespoon

Method:

Just Mix all the ingredients and pack it in a zipper bag.  For a Cereal, opt for a healthy one in the grocery store.  Whole grain or Multi grain cereal works best.
