Citrus Free Classic Trail Mix

Trail mix sounds simple, but finding a grab-and-go snack that's completely free of citrus — no orange peel, no lemon-flavored coatings, no hidden citric acid surprises — can be trickier than it looks on store shelves. This version keeps things refreshingly straightforward with a lineup of nuts, seeds, dried fruit, and chocolate that delivers serious snacking satisfaction. The combination of roasted peanuts, cashews, and almonds brings a satisfying crunch and a good hit of protein, while sunflower seeds add a subtle earthiness that rounds everything out. Raisins and dried cranberries give you that chewy, sweet contrast that makes trail mix so addictive, and the semi-sweet chocolate chips tie it all together with just enough indulgence. Toss in the M&Ms if you want a little extra color and candy-coated fun — they make it feel like a treat without going overboard. The whole thing comes together in one bowl with zero cooking required, making it an ideal recipe to batch-prep for hikes, road trips, school lunches, or afternoon snack attacks. Store it in an airtight container and you've got a reliable, crowd-pleasing snack ready to go whenever hunger strikes.
