Monkey Mix

Monkey Mix

Trail mixes are a great snack for kids. There are many different ways you can mix and match a variety of dried fruit & nuts. This one we call monkey mix because ALL the monkeys in the family seem to like it…even the not so hairy ones. Raw cacao nibs aren’t too flavourful on their own, but when combined with the sweetness of dried fruit such as goji berries, it becomes another little piece of all natural awesomeness.

Although this is not the ideal nutritarian snack, I have no problem feeding it two my kids as we consider it a great treat on occasion and a much healthier alternative to butter and heavily salted popcorn. Not to mention that the kids love it so much that the switch from the conventional took place without even a blink. In fact, there must be little hungry ghosts in our kitchen because before we actually start the movie, usually about half the popcorn is already gone. Hmmmm….   We also love popping our popcorn in a simple brown paper bag in the microwave. It takes less than two minutes and requires no additional kitchen appliances. Even my husband who seems...
