Superfood Trail Mix

11/4/2014

This superfood trail mix is the ideal snack or 'on the run' food. Even better, it's really easy to make. So what's so good about it this tasty and nutritious combo?
The nuts provide plenty of protein, good fats and antioxidants to give you the energy hit needed to get you through the day. Did you know goji berries are considered one of the most nutritionally dense foods on earth? They are 15 times higher in iron than spinach, richer in Vitamin C than oranges and a good source of zinc, calcium, selenium and many other phytonutrients. The humble goji berry really is a nutritional powerhouse. Dried blueberries add further antioxidant boost while the cacao nibs are the highest whole food source of magnesium, so important to nourish our adrenal glands and calm our nervous system.

I love to nibble on a big handful of this mix between lunch and dinner, it keeps my energy and concentration levels high. The sweeteness of the goji berries and blueberries will satisfy any sugar craving you may have. Take some to work to snack on in your favourite
