POWER TO THE PEOPLE
WE love trail mix – or as some of us call it, scroggin – it’s lightweight, portable and full of energy-dense ingredients like dried fruit, nuts, and chocolate. Just perfect for trailside noshing. There are no rules for trail mix – combine whatever sounds good! Let’s start off by looking at what goes in trail mix and then we’ll give you a dozen trail mix combos.
These pint-size nutritional dynamos are loaded with healthy unsaturated fats, protein, fibre, antioxidants, If you have a nut allergy (or you’re just looking to mix things up), seeds provide many of the same nutritional benefits as nuts. Sesame seeds, for example, are good sources of phosphorus, mono-unsaturated fats and omega-6 fats – which are basically great for your body. Our favourites: hemp (yes hemp!), sunflower, sesame and flax.
