snack mix

Healthier than store bought trail mix (contains much less sodium, no preservatives, and dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate).  Yummier too!



Mix together:
salted pretzels (I like Snyder's of Hanover minis)
raisins
dark chocolate
unsalted nuts (walnuts, pecans, cashews, almonds)

The salt on the pretzels is plenty to add some saltiness to the mix.  Alternatively, you could buy unsalted pretzels and one type of salted nuts (i.e. salted cashews and the rest unsalted).  Store in an airtight container for a couple of weeks.  Pretzels may not remain super crispy, probably due to some moisture from the raisins/nuts.
