Instructions
To make each trail mix combo, chop the dried fruits and nuts into smaller pieces to make them stretch farther as your family nibbles on the mix. The ratio of cereal to dried fruit and nuts is just a suggestion since some dried fruits can be more expensive than others. Each of these mixes would also taste great with raisins or golden raisins mixed in if you need an additional budget-friendly dried fruit to bulk up the mix.
Stir the ingredients together and store in an airtight container up to 2 weeks.
