Who else just loves getting their snack on? Personally, I am a big fan of anything sweet, salty, & crunchy with a little kick of heat. Who else is with me on this one? ;)







That is why I was crazy excited when I got the chance to try the one and only Huy Fong Original Sriracha Almonds. These California roasted premium almonds are flavored with the official, full-flavored taste of the authentic Huy Fong brand Sauce. It's just like having your favorite Sriracha sauce in a perfectly snackable form!

I think that the start of a new school year gives us all the chance to do a little reset. We switch from our laid back summertime mode into a more structured back to school routine. My family & I also start to focus on getting back to eating healthier. I mean, I have to keep the kiddos (& myself!) ready to go & fueled for each school day. 

To help make this reset back to healthier eating more fun & a whole lot easier, I have enlisted the help of some of our favorite brands from the Natural Foods Department at our local Kroger. On my last shopping trip to Kroger, I picked up a box of Horizon Chocolate Snack Grahams, a package of Simple Truth Organic Banana Chips, & a bag of Simple Truth Walnut Halves & Pieces to whip up this super easy to make & 100% kid approved Chunky Monkey Snack Mix...

Between cross country practices and meets, a preschooler who is always "starving" the second she gets home from school, and my son & I's more frequent weekend hikes, I am always trying to come up with tasty & satisfying snacks that are also perfect for my on-the-go family. 






Lately, we have really been into trail mixes. I can throw a few scoops of trail mix into plastic baggies for quick snacks for my son to munch on during meets or to toss into my backpack before a Sunday hike. 






Recently I discovered Malt-O-Meal® bagged cereals (like my family's new favorites- Cinnamon Toasters, S'Mores, & Golden Puffs) at my local Food Lion, and the wheels began to turn. Crunchy, delicious cereals make the perfect base for homemade trail mixes. 






And with 34 family-favorite flavors available to choose from, just think of all the trail mix possibilities, folks! ;)
