Trail mix is perfect for a camping trip. A great snacking food for having by the fire, or while hiking, trail mix is a healthy and energizing food that all campers should pack. The perfect combinations of trail mix often consist of various nuts, dried fruits, seeds, and other ingredients.
One of our favourite trail mixes is one that we call the Crazy Coconut trail mix. This is an extremely easy trail mix to make and it is a very healthy alternative to many other camping snacks. It is also absolutely delicious!
