The Cick Fil A minis get me every time…
My supervisor was kind enough to bring in a large order of Chicken Minis today and I couldn’t resist. Chick Fil A is the one fast food place I can never say no to and oddly enough its the only one that I have ate at since I started this blog. The little mini was only a couple of bites and totally ‘worth it.’
Lunch was another fun twist on left overs. I feel like all my lunches have been left overs lately at least they’re left overs with a twist. 
I cooked an extra Sun Dried Tomato Chicken Sausage on the George Foreman last night and today I made a sandwich with it.
Between two slice of an Arnolds Thin I had the chicken sausage, Chavrie goat cheese, tomato, spinach and mustard.
On the side was the last 1/4 or so of my Stuffed Acorn from last night.
Nature Valley Granola Nut Clusters Giveaway…
In honor of the launch of the New Nature Valley Granola Nut Clusters MyBlogSpark.com sent me a snack pack to sample and review the new clusters on my blog.
According to the site:
Nature Valley Granola Nut Clusters are a bite size blend of 100% natural ingredients that include select roasted nuts, whole grain oats and a touch of honey – a wholesome and delicious pick-me-up any time of the day. If you love nuts, you´ll enjoy this flavorful little snack featuring the perfect combination of sweet & salty flavors paired with a crunchy texture that you can see and taste. And with the first unique cluster-shaped granola packaged in a handy re-sealable pouch, it´s perfect for sharing on the trails or in your living room!
Anyone else rely on Nature Valley granola bars in college? They seemed to always be the cheapest granola bar at the grocery store especially with the Buy One Get One Free sales constantly surrounding them.
A couple of years ago I stopped purchasing the granola bars due to the lackluster ingredient list. When I was introduced to the nut clusters I was happy to see the ingredient list was slightly shorter and the nutritional stats weren’t too bad either.
This morning I put the clusters to the ultimate taste test and sampled all 4 flavors.
Nut Lovers
Roasted Almond
Roasted Cashew
Honey Roasted Peanut.
Overall each cluster was very sweet, but still taste great. They were fun to crunch on a
nd I loved how I could see whole nuts in each piece. The clusters would be a perfect snack on a hike or something easy to pack for a trip. Its creative spin on a traditional granola bar that I really enjoyed trying. 
Want to sample the Nature Valley Nut Clusters for yourself?
MyBlogSpark.com has offered to give one lucky reader their own Nature Valley Granola Nut Clusters "Snack Pack" prize pack which includes:
- all four (4) varieties of the Granola Nut Clusters
- a sling backpack
- stainless steel water bottle
- flashlight
- and binoculars!

You have until tomorrow morning to leave a comment. I will draw a random winner during my breakfast post.
Good Luck!!!

I go hiking in the Shenandoah Moutains a lot and I usually bring Kashi granola bars!! MMM
I’m allergic to corn syrup and I’m glad it isn’t in the Nut Clusters, even though it is still in the granola bars!
Peanut butter sandwiches! Especially after they get all mushed up in my bag
‘smores!!!
http://eatventures.wordpress.com
any trail mix is my fave, especially the ones with chocolate in them!
I love sucking on jolly ranchers when hiking!! They seem to last forever.
Otherwise, you can never go wrong with string cheese or a granola bar

I love eating grapes during any kind of hiking or walking. They are easy to eat and quench your thirst and hunger.

I like bringing Kashi TLC bars to snack on while hiking. I tried the nut clusters the other week and they are good. A little sweet but nice to munch on.
I’ve never been hiking or camping either, but I think that I’d probably rely on granola bars, almonds, and turkey jerky.
I like to take any kind of bar on a hike.trail run with me. They’re the most convenient. I also like dried bananas!
Clif moJo bars are great
cool! My favorite hiking snack would have to be trail mix, hands down. And some kind with a little chocolate in it. It’s the best!
I used to eat those bars in college all the time, too! I haven’t seen these clusters yet, though.
We hike in the Adirondack mountains and the best hiking snack is a clif bar! It recharges you and it is quick to eat and easy to carry! Love them!!
I’d love to try them. The last time I went hiking I brought oats in a jar!
Well, now I really want to go hiking – but I’d have to say GORP, aka “good ol’ raisins and peanuts.” But obviously I add chocolate, too. Thanks!
larabars would be perfect for hiking!
I usually bring clif bars to hike/ski! They are easy to eat on the go – but now that I am reading some of these other comments, it looks like I might need to mix it up a bit!!
I always pack pb&j and trail mix!
fruit snacks – especially on long hikes. perfect for a quick burst of sugar
I tend to take Lunabars everywhere I go… especially on hikes.
Whole Foods had a dark chocolate GORP mixture that was to die for! But I haven’t had it since I became diabetic
I’m not a big hiker/camper, but if I’m going, I DEF need gorp (plus M&Ms) and s’mores. YUMMM!!
Trail mix, duh
lol
We love Trail Mix. Since our hikes are often 5 or 6 nights and we carry all our food for the week – we have to have low weight and high cal. Nuts + dried fruit + chocolate is the perfect mix!
I love eating CLIF bars while hiking. They just seem so “outdoorsy “- guess it’s the picture on the wrapper!!
My favorite snack to taking hiking/camping is probably energy or granola bars.
My favorite snack to carry is a Luna bar. Yum.

Homemade trail mix
Barney Butter and banana sandwich. My fav!

My boyfriend and I love to take Cliff Bars when we hike (esp carrot cake!), they taste like a treat but they definitely take care of hunger too.
My favorite hiking fuel is a PB & sliced banana sandwich!
dried fruit – especially dried mango!
Trail mix
granola and clementines
)))
I don’t bike often BUT I walk/hike a lot and always take a huge bag of raw veggies, a larabar, and a banana or apple… those little fruit leathers are good, though, a lot lighter than a big ol piece of fruit!
We usually always have to bring some red vines licorice when we go camping.
I would have to say trail mix, water and an apple!
Definitely homemade trail mix, but must include M&M’s.
I like fruit and trail mix
Apples and Trail Mix!
Trail mix hands down all the way. Last time I went camping with my boyfriend we mixed white and dark chocolate chunks, peanuts, and raisins. mmmmmmm.
My favorite hiking snack is dried fruit and nuts. Those nut clusters look soo yummy! Perfect for a hiking snack…
sunflower seeds!! preferably flavored:)
I love taking along homemade trail mix or clif bars.
A peanut butter sandwich. And if I’m really feeling sassy I’ll throw some banana on it too. YUM! It’s the best when you get to the top (or end) of a hike. SOOO delicious!
We always take the peanut butter Nature Valley bars, fruit, pretzels and lots of water. We also take Gu Chomps depending on how far we’re going. Definitely a necessity when climbing 14ers.
trail mix alllll the way!!!
Nuts and fruit!
Luna Bars – especially the White Chocolate Macadamia Nut flavor. Yum.
When I was little, my mom always made homemade trail mix (which I still love), but now I like Larabars or fruit leathers.

Trail Mix!

I noticed recently that NV don’t used corn syrup anymore…that made me happy!
I like to make my own mix of small cookies, crackers, nuts, dried fruits & seeds. Great giveaway!
granola bars and fruit!
well if chik fil-a was more outdoor activities friendly that’d be my choice…yum. Nothing screams hiking like trail mix…peanuts, alonds, m &ms, raisins…
Apples are my favorite! Naturally portable and delicious!
I love sandwiches as a hiking snack. My boyfriend and I went hiking earlier this fall and took along ginormous peanut butter jelly and banana sandwiches and BLTs. Sandwiches leave no mess or trash, they’re easy to assemble when you’re camping out or staying in a cabin, and they’re yummy!
P.S. I really hope you win the blogger contest!
GORP!
I love taking oranges on a hike. After I eat it I put a little piece of the peel in my water bottle for a little bit of flavor. yummy!
My favorite snack to bring would definitely be granola. It is so satisfying and delicious!
This is a super boring answer, but probably a Clif Zbar or a Larabar!
In the words of a wise man “bagels are beautiful for backpacking”!! Of course along with some pb and honey.
I also love trail mix (gorp-good old fashioned raisins and peanuts -what we called it at summer camp way back when) but have to add mm’s for the full effect!!
GORP, obviously. Any time I’m going into the woods for more than a couple days, all snacks take a back seat to this energy-dense, nutrient-filled snack item. Of course, I’m known to dress it up with a billion add-ins, so maybe it should be GORP+++. (Note: shredded coconut does NOT work when in the woods for a week or more. Blech).
I like to bring PB&J’s
I love Trader Joe’s Apple/Strawberry/Blueberry cereal bars. They’re exactly like nutrigrain bars except for no funny ingredients
They do have a lot of sugar, but it’s totally “worth it”!
I love trail mix and GORP–I’m old school
I love a mix of almonds, TJ’s High Fiber O’s, some dried fruit (whatever I can scrounge up) and pretzel pieces. It’s the perfect combo of sweet and salty!
I like to take homemade trail mixes!
My absolute favorite are the Kashi – crunchy granola bars!
I like bananas and raw almonds… on a hike or for an office snack. Can’t go wrong with those two.
My favorite snack would have to be beans cooked over a fire! YUM. So satisfying…especially when you arecamping in the cold
I’ll usually pack a pbj and an apple. Not very exciting, but good!!
peanuts & raisins
Apples! Always gives you that extra refreshing boost.
yogurt covered raisins! num
I am traditional–dried fruit and nuts
My favorite hiking snack are nuts!
TJs anti-oxidant mix!
Trail mix!! I like to make my own with cereal, dried cherries, cranberries, blueberries, and dark choc chips. Yummy!
I got a sample of the nut clusters a few weeks ago and loved them. I think they’d be great on a hike in place of trail mix. P.S. I am giving away two breast cancer awareness prize packs on my blog: http://lovinlosing.com/.
My mom always made a mix she called gorp. It was so good! Peanuts, m&M’s, mini marshmallow, raisins and whatever else we had on hand! It is so good and I love it! The sweet and salty combo is great!
When my dad and I went hiking he would ALWAYS make homemade trail mix! It was great!! We also always brough Sun Chips! Delisssh!
I do have a silly question though, do you eat the outter skin of the acorn squash? Just curious!
Goldfish crackers! Because they remind me of one of the first hikes I went on with my husband.
I usually take a variety with me of Clif Bars, Lara Bars and almonds or trail mix. I know that’s more than 1 favorite…but I like them all!
My mom is much better at providing the hiking snacks, so if i have the opportunity to hike with her (rare), we have homemade gorp! I usually stick to the fruit leathers and Luna bars or granola bars. Easy.
I love homemade trail mix. You can put in whatever you want – my favorite mix is almonds, crasins, dark chocolate m&ms and pretzels. delish!
I love Luna bars because they’re portable and low glycemic!
barely naked brand granola bars. sooo good and very filling!
I love PB&J! Just gotta make sure it doesn’t get squished when you pack it!
definitely clif bars and apple slices are my favorite snacks during hikes!
My favorite portable snack is a Clif MoJo Mountain Mix bar!!
num num
When I climbed the Schilthorn in Switzerland a few years ago, we ate Nutella sandwiches when we got to the halfway point. It’s too rich for an everyday snack but we needed the extra energy!
Oh wow, those look good!
On a hike I like to take a banana. It’s filling and portable and not too sweet
Or an apple.
Chocolate never hurts either
my favorite? are granola bars and pretzels.
My favorite snacks to take hiking/camping are granola bars and fruit strips.
A good ol’ PB&J with a banana. And a mini snickers at the top! YUM

I love taking TrueNorth Almond Clusters on hikes. I once hiked 9 miles and only had those to eat the whole time.
I had a sundried tomato chicken sausage for lunch today too! I sauteed it with an egg and some cheese and put it on a WW english muffin. It was amazing!!
Trail mix!! With plenty of dried fruit, nuts, seeds and M&M’s of course…absolutely essential!
it’s trail mix (with some sort of chocolate) or clif bars for me!
mmm…..peanut butter crackers!! I know they arent the healthiest, but they keep me energized and full!!
My dad would always pack Starbursts and dole them out to us on hiking and cross country ski trips when i was a kid.
I LOVE peanut butter on graham crackers!! Especially after they sit in the pack for a while and the flavors really meld
Can I win even if I’ve never been hiking or camping? I mean, I went to Girl Scout camp when I was younger but that’s about it, lol.
I have, however, tried the NV nut clusters — they are are especially tasty when mixed with some plain greek yogurt!
All about the trail mix

We always take Lara Bars with us hiking and maybe some beef jerky for some extra protein. Yum!

I love to take turkey jerky and a combo of dried fruits and nuts.
I didn’t bring anything when I went camping, the people I went with brought a cooler. It was the first time I had Nathan’s hotdogs (the best ever, but so bad for you
).
If I had to bring a snack it would probably be a granola bar. I love Nature Valley Cinnamon granola bars.

I hike often in New Hampshire and my husband I LOVE to make home made trail mix along to munch on with xtra m&ms….these granola bites would fit in perfectly!
I usually hike with an apple and pb&j. It seems to give me the right amount of energy to get through a decent hike!

Trail mix is the old standby…but the best
trail mix of course! It is the perfect hiking snack because you can customize it and “bulk it up”!
any sort of portable fruit simply because it’s easy to grab out if hunger hits. Apples, bananas, pears..anything really! Is it too cliche to say trail mix though? love that stuff!
apples and raw almonds
I love eating pistachios around the campfire. You can crack them open and try to toss the shell into the fire – if you miss – no big deal!
I like traditional trail mix when hiking, full of dried cranberries and almonds…yum yum yum!
I have honestly never been hiking but it is something I want to try sometime soon. Something that I would bring with me when I start hiking though would have to be trail mix (I know so many other people put that already!) but the salt of some nuts and sunflower seeds + a tiny bit of chocolate chips + dried fruit in with it would be a great on the go food for hiking.
Ive never actually been camping, but id say my favourite snack to take would probably be homemade trail mix or clif bars!
I love Nature’s Valley! I actually usually take their PB bar when I go on a walk. My husband and I have an on-going joke about how he ALWAYS has a Nature’s Valley granola bar on him, because he DOES! I would love to try the nut clusters! What a great giveaway!
I’m actually a big fan of taking homemade pb/oatmeal bars with me because the combo of the pb and the oatmeal really fills me up!
Crackers…not too crumbly like a granola bar and easy to throw a pre-portioned amount into a bag
I love leftovers with a twist! I actually really enjoy leftovers.
I like taking granola with me when I go hiking!
I have to go with homemade traditional trail mix. Nothing beats the combination of sweet/salty.

I love apples on hikes because they are jucy and crisp and also i like a trail mix bar (like Nature Valley) that have a mix of nuts/chocolate/granola.

PB, banana, and honey sammies are the best for hiking!
sounds pathetic but my family hasnt ever gone camping or hiking =( i have always really wanted to though! In the future, i think i would bring trail mix and a bar!
I love Smucker’s Uncrustables. Yes, I could just make PB&J myself, but these are so easy and so tasty. Plus, the seamed-together break means there’s no PB&J leaking all over the place while I’m eating
homemade trail mix!! With lots of nuts, dried fruit, cereal and something chocolate (if it’s not too hot!!)
PB&J is definitely one of my favorites for hiking (or any outdoor activity for that matter!), i like when the bread and pb and jam get a chance to blend all together. Haha that sounds gross but it really is good!!

I like to take granola bars/lara bars/cliff bars… I guess it’s safe to say I like bars lol
But they are easy and portable. 
Living in Wyoming, I hike and camp A LOT! My favorite snack/lunch used to be one of those tuna/crackers/relish/mayo packs, but lately it’s a simple Larabar! Yum.
We’ve gotten over two feet of snow here in Wyoming over the last couple days, and this conversation is making me wish it was summer!
Homemade trail mix- mixed nuts, raisins, and M & Ms. But these new Nut Clusters look like they’d be a great addition to the mix!
I, too, relied on Nature Valley granola bars in college, and have since moved on to other bars with better nutritional facts.
I’d love to try to nut clusters, however!
My favorite hiking/camping snack is GORP…good ol’ raisins and peanuts, with a healthy dose of chocolate chips mixed in. I only ever eat this when camping/hiking, so it always brings a smile to my face.
i loooooove lara bars!
Raw nuts, banana chips, dry cereal!
I love the Kirkland brand dried fruit and nut mix from Costco.
A combo of an apple and some type of trail mix or granola bar!
I’ve never been hiking but camping i’ve done, but my favorite snack is trail mix by far because you have sweet and salty and the protein and crunch from the nuts are perfect when you need that pick me up!
http://saladdiva.wordpress.com
we always use the same staple snacks for hiking in the summer and snowboarding in the winter: nature valley peanut butter granola bars, peanut butter and honey sandwiches, and some sort of durable fruit, usually apples and oranges.

i used to grab a luna bar and piece of fruit, but these would be awesome! (trail mix was always a back up) these would also be awesome in greek yogurt and perfect for work on the run!
I have to sadly admit I’ve never been on a walk long enough to require a snack.
But these I would love to try for my snack at work or like you mentioned, while traveling! I love Nature’s Path Granola Bars in college…..the peanut butter ones……
Thanks!
Although I don’t expend that many calories when hiking, I always use it as an excuse to go crazy with dried fruit, nuts and M&Ms!
Homemade trail mix for sure…my possibilities are ENDLESS!
This is my first comment ever, but I’ve been a reader for months…oops! BTW I’ve also been voting for you at home and at work – good luck!!
My fave snack is GORP!
Trail Mix for sure!
Favorite hiking or camping snack is a toss up between granola bars and trail mix. The bars are great because they seem to fill me up better… but the trail mix is always nice because you can just grab handfuls as you go
Trail mix for sure. That stuff is crack!
I love a PB&J on a hike or when I am camping, but then again I could eat it anytime!
Nutty Bars…the little debbie kind. So bad…yet soooo good!!

My favorite snack while hiking are clif bars or a pita with tofurky or just plain fruit. I love hiking!
My favourite snack are apples because once you’re done eating you can toss the core anywhere and it decomposes! No garbage to carry around!
fig newtons were always brought on my family hiking trips too!!! so funny! but my fave is just some plain trailmix (m&ms are a must!)
I love taking nuts, clif bars and dried fruit on hikes. Don’t forget lots of water too!
bars and fruit like apples are perfect hiking snacks!
I like eating Clif bars and GORP while on hikes.
My fave snack is a Cliff Bar – the pb flavor is the BEST!!

I love those old time favorite Nab crackers! Haha, the orange ones are the best!
Apples or homemade trail mix are my favorites to take on hikes
my family always bought crunch ‘n munch when we went camping… i think that’s the only time of the year we’d eat it.
I love clif energy bars on hiking trips! That and fig newtons.

whenever my boyfriend and i go hiking, we pack a lunch and eat it when we reach the top of the mountain. our lunch always contains peanut better sandwiches!!
Something simple and easy like a PB sandwich, a Cliff Bar, or a Luna Bar
When I went to the Grand Canyon, I look Larabars on my hikes and they were great fuel for hiking in the desert heat.

Clif Bars are definitely my favorite hiking/camping snack. Light weight and easy to eat on the go!

Also, anything with peanut butter is always a go-to for me.

hiking always remind me of toberlone and gummy fruit snacks that my dad would bring with us when hiking
A pb&j, trail mix and some fresh fruit is usually my go to! but these look very delish to add to my snack pack
My favorite snack to take camping is lara bars! yummy and all naturale : )
To be honest I’ve never taken a snack while hiking, although it probably would have been a good idea being that I was starving afterward!
Trail Mix or some portable fruit would probably be the way to go for me
I have never had an opportunity to hike
I’d love to, but where I live there aren’t too many places to go.
Peanut butter and jelly sandwich and an orange.
I just found your site and love it. I used to run and am so motivated to start again as soon as I recover from my cold. Thank you for your inspiration!
i wish i had more time to hike, i love it! i would say trail mix or an apple, my favorite fruit.

Hmmm….this might be a little generic but nothing beats s’mores on a camping trip!…not exactly the healthiest answer

Tempeh, avocado, Mary’s crackers and hummus! Oh and carrots! I also bring snacks like trail mix or a larabar.
Clif bars! I tried one of these clusters (cant remember which flavor) they were awesome in my Greek yogurt!
We always make homemade trail mix we go out on the lake. Everyone can find something they want to add to the mix.
I love packing energy bites for a hiking snack. I mix oats, pb, honey, whole wheat flour, and cinnamon and roll into bite sized balls. Perfect for a quick eat on the trail!
my favorite hiking snack would be a simple peanut butter and banana sandwich.

I love to eat KIND bars while hiking. Something about these bars just seem so woodsy to me.

My favorite hiking snacks are Clif bars and orange slices. Easy to pack and eat without having to worry too much about needing clean hands–the bars have a wrapper and the oranges have the peel to hold onto!
Well for the shorter hikes it has to be one of Trader joe’s trail mix or cadburry chocolate

I think granola bars are great for hikes because they are easy to take on the go and not messy at all, which is great!!!
When I go hiking or camping, I love to pack “PB graham-wiches” (peanut butter sandwiched between two grahams). They’re delicious, light-weight, and also give me some solid fuel for the remainder of my journey. Thanks for the giveaway, Meghann!
My family always packed hard candy– it’s a good way to stay hydrated and keep your mouth busy, plus on long hikes sometimes you need that little sugar rush!

My favorite snack to take on hikes is Clif bars. I recently discovered white chocolate macadamia flavored ones. Only way to describe them- three letters- omg.
I love munching on seeds while hiking! Also- we used to hike with an orange when growing up. While walking we would be squeezing and playing with the oranges the whole way- and when we got to the end of out hike, my mom would pass out peppermint sticks or twizzlers for us to bite the ends off of and make into sweet straws- she would cut a slit in the orange for our “straws” and we would refuel with FRESH still-in-the-skin OJ
What a great giveaway!

My favorite snack to take with me is the Nature Valley Trail Mix Fruit & Nut bars (and I’m not even just making this up since the nut clusters are a Nature Valley product too… I promise!)! I love that they are like a condensed version of a handful of trail mix and super chewy : )
I love to take peanut butter and crackers as a snack when hiking!
