I was lucky enough to visit Chicago this summer and I brought Holly’s best Snack mix recipe with me! I made the recipe ahead of time to take on the plane, but what I soon learned is that the travel mix fit perfectly in my purse for anywhere I went.

There is so much walking that can be done in Chicago (and anywhere that you travel) that you can build up quite an appetite. This savory sweet snack mix would help me get through the day. So, wherever you go healthy snacks on the go can be helpful to get you through the day.  Whether you’re traveling or just  busy, I recommend making this delicious on the go snack mix to have when you get tired or just have the munchies.
