It’s my favorite time of the day. Blog time. Today I’m feeling rather hungry, so I want to give you this great recipe if you need a snack in your life right now like I do. This nice little snack mix from Hungry Girl will certainly lift your spirits and your taste buds!

Ingredients:

  • 2 Nature Valley Crunchy Granola Bars (that’s 1pack), Peanut Butter flavor
  • 3/4 cup Cocoa Puffs cereal…yum
  • about 1 cup Gerber Finger Foods Fruit Puffs, Banana flavor
  • 1 ounce (about 1 cup) freeze dried strawberries
Oh gosh, this stuff is good. Photo from hungrygirl.com.

Step 1: Using a sharp knife, cut the granola bars into small bite sized pieces.

Step 2: Place granola pieces along with the other ingredients into a sealable plastic bag or in an airtight container with a lid.

Step 3: Shake it up!

How easy is that? You’ve got yourself such a delicious snack to take to work, take on a hike, or just munch on whenever.

And what’s the calorie count? 110 calories per 3/4 cup. Not bad for a snack with such big flavor.
