Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    This nutty trail mix can be made and stored in an airtight container for several days. It's the perfect snack for after school, hiking or in between running errands on a busy day.
  • tip 2
    This recipe uses salted mixed nuts, but you can use salted peanuts or cashews instead, or create your own mixed nuts by mixing and matching your favorites. If you don't need to worry about gluten free, try pretzel nuggets, for a fun shape that holds the coating deliciously!
