    Kids Chocolate Trail Mix

    July 22, 2016 by burntapple Leave a Comment

    Delicious kids chocolate trail mix is perfect for long car rides, school lunches or hikes! 

    Ten hours there. Ten hours back. I've driven the road from Salt Lake City to Southern California more times than I can count. But with three kids?

    You need snacks. And movies. And books. And activities. And patience. Lot's and lot's of patience.

    Patience doesn't last ten hours. But it would be nice if it did. Especially when one child has to go to the bathroom in the middle of the desert with no rest stop in sight for 100 miles.

    This time around we brought some fun kid friendly chocolate trail mix. It can save the world. Or three grumpy kids from breaking out in war against each other in a car. Road trips are the only time I don't curse the minivan. One row for each child. Note to everyone considering a minivan everywhere: Minivans do NOT eliminate fights.

    But this chocolate lovers trail mix will. Chocolate trail mix saves the world. For a few minutes.

    About Me

    minimal ingredient recipes with five ingredients or less and ready in under thirty minutes! many recipes are gluten free, dairy free and FODMAP friendly too!

    I've been making over recipes since I was ten. Back then I wasn't so great at it and created everything from rubber cakes for my Dad's birthday to rock muffins that put a hole in the wall.

    Diagnosed with colitis ten years ago and with three young children I had to learn to cook. But life was busy and there wasn't a lot of time to cook or figure out what I could eat!

    Burnt Apple became my personal coffee shop--a place to share, talk and vent! I share minimal ingredient recipes with five ingredients or less and ready in under thirty minutes!

    Welcome home...to a REAL home! One that is busy, on the go and doesn't have time to sit all day in the kitchen!
