Without snacks, road trips can be boring. Especially if the passengers are napping while you drive or if you are getting a little bit sleepy from the lull of the road.
So tell me, if you are headed on a road trip, what snacks do you have to have?
For me, it’s Twizzlers Twists because they are easy to eat and don’t melt (particularly in the South Texas heat). I also love a sweet and salty combo so when my mom & I road tripped to Louisiana earlier this month, I created a bag full of snacks, including my Twizzlers Twists Trail Mix.
A few days before the trip, I went to Walmart to gather the ingredients for my trail mix and pick up all my other last-minute road trip necessities (ear plugs for sure!). Then I headed home to put together my 5 minute trail mix.
How to Make Twizzlers Twists Trail Mix:
You’ll Need:
- 1 cup Twizzlers Twists, cut into pieces
- 1/2 cup Almonds
- 1/2 cup Banana Chips
- 1/2 cup Dried Berries
- 1 1/2 cups Bugels
- Storage Container
- Kitchen Shears
- Large bowl, optional
- Spoon, optional
Instructions:
1. In a large zippered bag or a bowl, toss in the ingredients. Use the measurements as a guideline – you can add more or less of whichever ingredient you’d like.
2. Gently mix until everything is combined.
3. Pour into a road trip-friendly storage container.
4. Serve and enjoy!
Twizzlers Twists Trail Mix can be tailored to your own likes and dislikes – but the Twizzlers Twists are a must.
The trail mix was a very welcome snack during the 10 hour trip to Louisiana. The salty-sweet mixture was delicious and it was nice to have a soft and crunchy combination, too.
I love this idea so much. We actually have a road trip to Hershey, Pennsylvania coming up a week from Saturday, so I think I’m going to make some of this for my boys.
Love sweet and salty snacks like this and so do my kids, Will definitely have to make this for our next road trip!
I sure do love Twizzlers. This looks like a perfect combination of salty and sweet.
Oh what a smart and yummy idea! I never would have thought to add Twizzlers to trail mix but now I can’t wait to try it.
Love Twizzlers! I would take this on a road trip.
This sounds like a great combination of sweet and salty. I think Twizzlers is my favorite candy!
Sweet and salty is a flavor combination that calls to me regularly. This mix looks so amazing I think it’s yelling to me. Come snack!
I love the mix you created. That sounds really tasty!
Wow. What a great combination of flavors. This would be a great snack to eat during a movie.
My love for twizzlers is exceeded only by my love for chocolate! What a great combo!
That looks yummy! I have never seen Twizzlers in a trail mix, great idea! Twizzlers are probably my dad’s favorite candy, he’d love this.
I love this as my kids don’t do chocolate, this is way more our style. Thanks for the great idea!
I love making home made snacks! It’s a great way to change things up and keep snacks a bit of a surprise everyone can look forward to!
