When we make this nut/dried fruit mix it's never quite the same, although it's usually pretty similar to the ingredients listed below. Add different ingredients based on your taste preferences! My personal favorite is the dried goji berries. They add some chewiness, sweetness, and a boatload of antioxidants!
Roasted nuts have added vegetable oil because they are fried, not roasted...you read that right...fried! One more way the food industry has taken a perfectly healthy food item and managed to give it an unhealthy spin! And for the cherry on top, they are also typically salted. Fear not, there is a solution! ~ the healthiest choice is to choose raw, unsalted nuts. Another good option is to buy dry roasted as those nuts are air roasted rather than fried. Sometimes it can be difficult to find some of these ingredients, especially in bulk. I recommend first looking in the bulk food section at your local grocery store like Kroger or Fresh Thyme. Another good option is this bulk food website. You can also find a great deal for goji berries on Amazon.
