I’m leaving this morning on a road trip – up to the Oregon coast with a dip down into Northern California to see the redwoods. Along with all the preparations that go into getting ready for such a long road trip, I also like to prepare snacks to take along with us. Instead of buying 3-day old, stale doughnuts at the gas station, wouldn’t you rather have some delicious (and more nutritious!) homemade trail mix to munch on? And it’s a lot cheaper than the junk food at the gas station! Make some sweet and make some savory to satisfy everyone in your car.
