Sweet and Crunchy Trail Mix

From the Editors of Live Right Live Well

This high-energy fruit and cereal snack mix is filled with fiber, vitamins and minerals --and makes a nutritious alternative to candy at Halloween time. The chocolate-covered raisins are a lower-fat and healthier way to satisfy your sweet tooth than the typical candy pieces in trail mixes. Help yourself control portions by dividing snack mix between six snack-size zippered bags. Get creative and customize your trail mix by substituting equal amounts of different dried fruits and cereal.

Makes about 3 cups (6 servings, ½ cup per serving)

Ingredients
1/4 cup raisins
1/3 cup dates, chopped
1/3 cup dried cherries
1/3 cup dried strawberries, chopped
1/3 cup dark-chocolate-covered raisins
1 cup oat squares cereal

Directions
1. Toss all ingredients together in a large bowl.

2. Store snack mix in a tightly covered container.
