I love finding quick and easy snacks like this Easy Kid Trail Mix!! The kids loved that it had all their favorites in it, and that we could make a large batch at once was a huge time saver for me.

Let’s face that being a parent is a lot of work. Isn’t it funny how we don’t seem to want to admit it, though??? I have to say anytime I can find shortcuts in life is a total win for me! Even better if the shortcuts lead to wholesome food for the family and save me time all at once! I used Annies Cocoa Bunnies to make up this trail mix, and the kids loved it!!
Organic Cereal, Cocoa Bunnies, Oat, Corn, Rice Cereal, 10 oz (Pack Of 10)
Annie’s Macaroni and Cheese, Shells & White Cheddar Mac and Cheese, 6 oz Box (Pack of 12)Annie’s Organic Bunny Fruit Snacks, Variety Pack, 24 Pouches, 0.8 oz Each
Now I like to use things like cereal in making other snacks, but don’t get me wrong, my kids love to have Annie’s Chocolate bunnies for breakfast, but it’s fun to work into other things too!! Easy Kids Trail Mix is one of our favorites to make up for the kid’s lunches or when we are out and about. Plus, you can mix in countless other things as well. I went with what we had on hand at the house.
Easy Kid Trail Mix Ingredients:
I measure mine out into bags for the kids to ensure they don’t sit and pick of just one thing out. One thing that saves me headaches is the name written on the bag. Even though they are 7, 9, and 12, it stops much arguing over who gets what and which has the most.
What do you put in your trail mix?? Do you make a kid’s trail mix?

Kids would love this trail mix. I’m preparing for grandkids to visit from out-lf-state in July — so, I’m pinning. Thanks.

I’m pretty sure I’d eat more of this than my granddaughter would.
