Easy Rainbow Snack Mix
It’s so colorful and I love the additional of fluffy white marshmallow ‘clouds’! Because marshmallows. YUM! The mix of sweet and salty is pretty perfect, too. Every now and then, a Goldfish pops up with that little hit of salt. And a Goldfish with a marshmallow? Money. Trust me!

Wouldn’t this be fun to pop in the kiddos’ lunch box for the week of St. Patrick’s Day? Man, why do I think of these things after my boys are past that fun age of surprise lunch box treats?! Oh well. There is no shame in my game … I may or may not be taking a bag of this to work today 😉

How many servings does this make?
Hi Charmaine – the recipe just uses equal parts of all of the ingredients. So if you use a cup of each (Trix, Froot Loops, Goldfish & marshmallows), you would end up with 4 cups of the rainbow snack mix. You can double or triple the recipe if needed. Enjoy!!
