Hi Gang. Today's Friday Favorite is a recipe for a great snack. It is my intention to have a recipe once a week. Today I'm making it a FF because it is so good it will become a favorite. This is Robin Newman's paleo trail mix which can also be treated like a granola or cereal. Take a close look at all that goodness pack in there.
You can choose any combination but here Robin used almonds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, pecans, cranberries, raisons and I think I see an occasional coconut chunk. Just go to the bulk foods and choose all your favorite nuts and seeds (unflavored and unsalted of course!). Dump it all in a bowl and drizzle with honey and mix. Spread onto a pan and bake at 350 for about 30-ish minutes, tossing and turning every 10 minutes. NOTE: Put the cranberries in at the end or they'll dry out in the oven and sprinkle 'a bit' of kosher salt over mix if you wish.

Sprouts will often have sales on their bulk foods. When they do, stock up and make a huge batch of this. What a great energy snack to take on the go and this would make a great homemade Christmas gift as well!

Have a great weekend!
