After saving for a couple of years and finding an unbelievably cheap fare, we’re finally taking the kids on a long-awaited trip to Hawaii. It’s not every day (or every thousand days) we get to go on an adventure like this, so I’m beyond excited. I’m actually writing this while on a plane to Maui and thought it was the perfect time to share a Hawaiian trail mix I adapted from @healthyhappyhome. I’ll admit I’ve never loved traditional trail mix (raisins = 🤢), and I usually end up picking out all the M&M’s. But this Hawaiian version is different — I can’t get enough of it! The combination of macadamia nuts and coconut chunks is so addictive. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
