Tasty Trail Mix Snack. I love the taste of homemade roasted almond or cashew. Furthermore, the trail mix has a crunch and a lovely aroma. Of course, the tasty sweet and salty flavor from the snack. Unlike before, I was never too fond of dried fruits with mixed nuts. Whereas now, I love them. Also, homemade does make the dish taste a lot better.
