Eggless Cranberry Walnut Trail Mix
Trail mix sounds simple until you realize how many store-bought versions sneak in binding agents, coatings, or mystery additives that can make label-reading a chore. This one is completely homemade, so you know exactly what's going into every handful. Walnuts, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds get tossed with maple syrup, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt for a lightly sweet, warmly spiced base that feels way more intentional than anything from a gas station rack. Dried cranberries add a chewy, tart pop, and dark chocolate chips bring just enough richness to make this feel like a treat rather than a compromise. The whole thing comes together in a single bowl with no baking required — just toss, portion, and you're done. It keeps at room temperature for up to two weeks, making it perfect for meal prep, road trips, lunchboxes, or an afternoon snack that actually holds you over.
