Hearty MultiGrain Snack

Nuts about Nuts

Replacing saturated fats with unsaturated fats from nuts may help lower blood cholesterol. But fats are high in calories so keep portions small.

Did You Know?

The beaten egg white in this recipe helps hold the cinnamon and brown sugar to the cereal and nuts.

Loved it!

This is a great snack and so easy to make. It would be very good with vanilla or almond flavoring, I will try that next time. We spend a lot of time on our boat and in our car, and this will be a great and not so messy snack to take with us!

GREAT

This is a great recipe! I also added a teaspoon of vanilla or almond flavoring. Instead of pecans, try another nut like almonds, it gives it a different, yummy taste. I took this on vacation with me and it was an awesome road snack.

great snack!

This is a great snack for on the go people like me! It's super simple and easy to make. I put the cereal mix and dried fruit in a plastic bag and eat this for breakfast.
