This is such a great energy mix!!!! It is quick to make, wonderful to look at, healthy, versatile and best of all so yummy! I scaled the recipe down to serve 3 people and still this made quite a lot, which is perfect as it is such a great snack! I used dried cherries in place of the apricots like WI Cheesehead and included the optional mangoes. In place of some of the pumpkin seeds I used sesame seeds. I really enjoy the flavours of all fruits, the seeds and almonds together. So good! Didnt include the cayenne this time as I wasnt looking for anything hot, but might add it next time. THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this wonderful recipe with us, Sharon! Made and reviewed for 1-2-3-Hit-Wonders April 2010.

Super easy to make and tastes great without any added seasoning. I used dark raisins, cherries for the apricots (no mango), 1/3 C almonds, 1/3 C cashew pieces and no extra seasoning. This is great for putting in my husband's lunch. I might also add some homemade granola to his portion. You could also add some coconut, but it IS high in sat. fat and we don't like coconut here. Note: I tried the sugar mix from Recipe #226785 and it pairs well with this recipe. I've made this many times and have put the recipe into my book#234006. Thanks Sharon!
