Total Time: 15 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
• 1 1/2 cups shoestring potatoes (or pretzels)
• 1 1/2 cups raisins (plain)
• 1 1/2 cups chocolate-covered raisins
• 1 1/2 cups cashews
• 1 1/2 cups peanuts
• 1 1/2 cups m&m's plain chocolate candy (red, green & bright colors only to keep the x-mas theme going, leave brown out)
• 1 1/2 cups dried banana pieces
• 1 1/2 cups dried limes (candied, or pineapple)
• 1 1/2 cups cereal (i use nestle's fitness)

Recipe

• 1 combine all ingredients. store in airtight containers in a freezer till ready to use.
• 2 notes: i needed an average of 3 cups trail mix for 5 bottled gifts, so i picked 10 items x 1½ cups = 15 cups. for the limes, i sliced thinly, candied them using a recipe neta here at rz found for me at another site & then cut them in sml pieces. i wanted to use red cinnamon candies for the red colour & tasty flavour, but i can only get them in the us. i’d never eaten the cereal i used till i came to iceland, but it’s a crunchy, sweet, cinnamon coated wafer type cereal i like. any cereal favourite can be used if it’s “sturdyâ€? enough to hold up in the mix (like chex does). there are really no rules for this except have fun!
• 3 pic note: altho not the season now, i posted a pic to show the "prototype".
