Cinnamon & Raisin Snack Mix

My children have been back to school for a few weeks now and we are in a really nice routine.  The daily packing of lunches, snacks, having an after school snack ready and then making dinner for my hungry guys can be a little tiring at times though.  Since I have one child in middle school and the younger children in elementary, our schedule is split for the 2 different bus runs as well.  We are getting through it and planning is definitely the key!  I love to have a bunch of easy, tasty and on the go recipes handy, including this yummy Cinnamon & Raisin Snack Mix.

This Cinnamon & Raisin Snack Mix takes only a few moments to put together and makes a nice large batch that you can divide up into individual containers or bags that are convenient to grab on a busy school morning.  Cinnamon Multi Grain Cereal is mixed with dry roasted pumpkin seeds, cinnamon almonds, and plump and juicy California Raisins for a delicious and healthy snack.

When I was little, I loved having raisins for a snack.  I usually had my own little box , which made me feel pretty special.  California Raisins are an all-natural, dried-by-the-sun fruit you can feel good about serving your own children for a snack at school or as an after-school snack. The ingredient list says it all: Raisins.  California Raisins come by their sweetness naturally too.  California Raisins have no fat, no cholesterol and no added sugar. Plus, raisins offer 9% of your daily fiber and potassium, and 6% of your daily iron (per quarter cup serving).

I have made this Cinnamon & Raisin Snack mix more than a few times now and everyone just loves it.  That warm cinnamon flavor, those sweet raisins and a little crunch from the almonds and pumpkin seeds make a perfect snack for Fall.  If you are looking for a little something different to send along with your children to school this Fall, give this simple snack mix a try!  I think you will love it!

Other fun and simple raisin snacks include, apples or celery topped with peanut butter and raisins or even raisins and granola sprinkled on top of your favorite yogurt!
