Protein-Packed Trail Mix (6 Ingredients!)
This Protein-Packed Trail Mix is equal parts savory, sweet, and downright addictive.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup pecans raw
- 1/2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon rosemary dried
- 1 pinch salt sea salt
- 1 bag jerky roughly chopped
- 6 tablespoons Dried Pears diced
- 4 tablespoons dried cranberries roughly chopped
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350℉ and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, toss pecans with olive oil. Sprinkle with rosemary and a pinch of sea salt, and toss until evenly coated.
- Spread evenly on the prepared pan and bake until golden brown and "toasted" smelling. This should take about 10 to 13 minutes, just don't let them burn! Allow to cool for a few minutes.
- Once cooled, roughly chop the pecans and place them into a large bowl. Add in the remaining ingredients and toss until evenly mixed.
- Store in resealable bags or an airtight container and enjoy!
