• Inka Plantain Chips - these are so satisfying and crunchy! As a starchy tuber they are a great source of carbs. • EcoAlter Coconut & Seeds Chocolate bark - a plant based chocolate loaded with nuts and seeds for an extra boost of healthy fats. • EPIC bars, jerky, or sticks - well sourced meat protein and very tasty! • Dehydrated apple chips - so sweet they could be candy! • Trail mix - I love to mix raw cashews, enjoy life mini chocolate chips, dehydrated raspberries, pumpkin seeds, brazil nuts, coconut flakes, orange zest, and almonds.

Mix any combo your heart desires! TIP: avoid nuts and seeds that have been roasted in canola oil, peanut oil, or sunflower oil. • Baobites superfruit snack - these gummies have no added sugar and taste delicious! They are high in fiber, vitamin C, antioxidants, and electrolytes. You can find them on Amazon. • Chocolate covered almonds - I typically pick these up from a local store. I don’t know what it is about dark chocolate covered almonds on the trail, but they can really get me through the last tough miles! • Fresh red pepper and hummus - often times I’ll bring a lighter weight fresh veggie with a small pack of hummus. If I cut it up at home I package it in a small ziploc bag with a damp paper towel. • Energy balls - you can google paleo energy balls and find a variety of recipes! I like to mix cashews, cacao, peppermint, honey, and coconut oil to make a delicious chocolate mint truffle! • Justins almond butter squeeze pack - if I’m lucky enough to sneak a fresh apple in my husbands pack then this almond butter and apple make the dream snack! If not, i’ll eat it by itself or sometimes on dehydrated apples. • Seaweed seasnax - not only do these salty crunchy seaweed snax tasty good, but also provide a great source of iodine! • Simple Mills crunchy chocolate chip cookies - need I say more? Just be prepared that these might be crumbs by the time you eat them. • Jacksons Honest Sweet Potato Chips - just sit down and enjoy a bag of chips on the trail. AND, still feel good about how you’re fueling your body!
