Trail mix has come a long way since the days of GORP (good old raisins and peanuts). There are now a multitude of dry ingredients, allowing you to create fun and delicious combinations. We at Well-Being Hawaii would like to share a few trail mix recipes that highlight local ingredients to enjoy on your next hike.
Keep in mind, trail mix is energy-dense because it’s loaded with calories. While you may find these recipes to be delicious, keep the serving sizes to a quarter cup or less.
