Nitrate & Nitrite Free Pineapple Lime Trail Mix
Tropical, tangy, and just a little bit addictive, this trail mix hits every note you want from a snack — crunchy, sweet, salty, and bright. Raw almonds, walnuts, and pumpkin seeds get tossed in a maple-lime glaze with a whisper of cayenne, then roasted until golden and fragrant. Once cooled, chewy chunks of unsweetened dried pineapple get folded in for a burst of fruit that makes the whole thing feel almost vacation-worthy. Packaged snack mixes are notorious for sneaking in cured meats, processed add-ins, or preservatives you'd rather avoid, but every ingredient here is straightforwardly whole and clean. The coconut oil and maple syrup create a light, crispy coating that holds together beautifully without any additives doing the heavy lifting. It comes together on a single baking sheet in under 20 minutes of active effort, and it stores well in an airtight container for easy grab-and-go snacking all week.
