Red Meat Allergy Friendly Cranberry Walnut Trail Mix

Crunchy, sweet, and just a little bit indulgent, this trail mix is the kind of snack you'll find yourself reaching for all week long. Walnuts, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds bring serious texture and staying power, while tart dried cranberries and dark chocolate chips keep every handful interesting. A drizzle of maple syrup and a pinch of cinnamon tie it all together with a warm, lightly caramelized coating that makes this feel like so much more than a handful of seeds. For anyone navigating a red meat allergy, snack time can get tricky fast — many packaged mixes and protein bars sneak in beef-derived gelatin or other animal-based binders. Every ingredient here is straightforward and plant-based, so you can munch without second-guessing the label. The cranberries are specifically called out to avoid hidden additives, which is a small but genuinely useful detail if you're used to reading ingredient lists with a magnifying glass. It comes together in one bowl with no cooking required, and it keeps at room temperature for up to two weeks — making it perfect for meal prep, road trips, or just keeping a stash in your desk drawer for the afternoon slump.
