Whoa…looks great. I’ve been looking for a recipe for a mix to take on my next hike. Thank you!!
I hate those protein bars. I just go to the supermarket and buy some beef jerky Slim Jim’s granola bars and nuts.
Nom. I’m gonna try this with erythritol syrup and some maple flavoring.
This is my second time watching this video. Since you mentioned the peanut butter pretzels I have not been able to get them out of my mind! Which is kinda funny because peanut butter doesn’t always agree with me. I’m still going to pick some up at Sprouts this week. I am most excited to try making my own trail mix!
Ofc its hard to plan what you are going to eat between breakfast and lunch.You may end up eating your friend that died on the trail.U never know
Ohmygosh that lil Dates pouch is the CUTEST! lol Am I the only one who gets excited about tiny things?
What are some of your go-to hiking snacks? Comment below!! ⬇️
Love these ideas! We just did a 9 mile hike and those energy balls would have been perfect!
Well done Amanda.
Love the editing skills thanks for sharing
Keep up the great work.
-Joe
My fav snack is homemade oat bars, just delicious and satisfying out on the trail!
This video is very very well put together. I’m new to hiking/backpacking and these ideas and information are extremely useful. Thanks!
just realised one of my favourite hiking snacks have hardly any energy some have had to swap them out for something else����
I really wished I loved peanut butter that much. It would be such great calories and fat. But I just don’t love it that much haha Thanks for all the suggestions!
You’ve mentioned those olives before… I hafta try them. Apples and granola I fully concur with. Apples are trail manna! ����
Great list! My favorite item from your suggestions was one that I’ve not tried before the PB pretzel bites. Looking forward to picking some of those up.
I have a snack suggestion for you. I love bacon, and so a while back I went on a quest to find the best tasting bacon jerky money can buy. I ordered a dozen or so different brands and did a blind taste test with friends and family.
By far the winner was a product called Kickin’ Sriracha Bacon Jerky by a company called Mission Meats. They’re hand made in small batches, but luckily unlike most specialty foods you can buy it on Amazon. It’s expensive, but absolutely to die for, and it keeps for months if unopened. Spicy, tangy, sweet, chewy and slightly crumbly bacon jerky. I never go on a hike without it. I used to try to share it with my fellow hikers, but to be honest, once I pass it around it quickly disappears, so these days I tend to keep it a secret unless I’m feeling particularly generous! ��
Great video. Thanks for sharing! I like to make beef jerky for camping trips.
Thanks Amanda! great ideas. can you share the recipe for homemade energy bites?
Yum yum.
Another one: Peanuts ground in a blender with a little breakfast cereal is easy to eat, easy to digest, instant energy and can be added to cooked foods and hot cereal.
I’d just bring beef jerky and multivitamins. I don’t like bringing stuff that requires cooking or utensils.
Thanks for the tips! I’ll try some of them in April, Yosemite hiking. Kind regards
Thank you for sharing this. I will try some of it during next trip.
If I bring beef sticks into the woods won’t bears smell that and kill me for them?
Buy a dehydrator and make your own jerky. Other than packing, making snacks for the trail is at least 50% of the enjoyment of going. When you make your own, you can experiment with your own favorite ingredients. Great ideas! I’ve got to get some olives next trip!
Wasabi almonds are awesome, but my favorite are salt and vinegar flavor!
hmm.. I’d try them all! ������ They all look yummy! �� However, I’d probably try The American first, because I love salty trail mixes or snacks ��
