Homemade Cranberry Almond Delight

My girls absolutely love having this trail mix in their lunch boxes. I discovered Cranberry Almond Delight last fall while searching for some healthy lunch box options. However, since my New Year's Frugal Kitchen Goal, I have been working toward lowering my weekly grocery bill. And these individual packets are a bit pricey. But with only three ingredients, I knew I could duplicate this mix easily.

And, along with my effort to prepare more homemade convenience foods, I made a trip to my local dollar store to pick up some small reusable containers. These containers are perfect for my kids lunch bags and at two for a dollar, I won't be heartbroken if one accidentally gets lost or thrown away.

Cranberry Almond Delight

1 cup party peanuts
½ cup raw, whole almonds
½ cup dried cranberries.

Measure all three ingredients into a quart sized mason jar and shake to combine. Cover and store at room temperature.
