Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries or cherries

  • 1/2 cup roasted almonds or peanuts
  • 1/3 cup red licorice bites or chopped licorice ropes
  • Optional: 1/4 cup freeze-dried strawberries or raspberries
  • Optional: 2 tbsp black candy pieces or Halloween sprinkles

Instructions

  2. In a large bowl, combine dried cranberries, yogurt raisins, red candies, chocolate chips, pretzels, and nuts.
