Healthy trail mix snack on-the-go
It's ok if you want to throw in a few roasted nuts once in a while (like cashews), but these should be used sparingly as toasted nuts don't contain as much nutrients and they generally contain added preservatives on them to slow down the rancid process. Always make sure you buy organic nuts and dried fruits, otherwise they most likely will contain sulfites and they have a much higher risk of being pasteurized or irradiated.
