Healthier You Challenge - Day 5

Affirmation: This is the ending of my history and the beginning of my destiny.

On my journey to adding new foods to my palate, I learned to like a mixture of nuts and berries. However, many of the pre-packaged trail mixes contained items that I did not enjoy. So, off to Trader Joe's I went to select my preferred nuts and dried fruits to create my own trail mix. My mix consists of unsalted roasted almonds, yellow raisins and dried cranberries. This healthy snack can be enjoyed when I have a craving or I am on the run.

What's in your cabinet, drawer, purse? Today is one of the many days that you will be encouraged to make healthy snack choices. Toss all of the sweets in the garbage and opt for a healthy snack created by YOU. Purchase your favorite nuts and dried fruit, use the small snack plastic bags, and start creating your healthy snack. Perhaps you should consider making a few extra bags to have on hand; the family may decide they like your trail mix too.

Under this posting on FaceBook, share with your sister/friends the ingredients of your trail mix.

Be Inspired and Inspire Someone
