Good And Good For You

We asked our staff health expert Shannon Sliter Satterwhite, M.S., R.D., to recommend a great-tasting alternative to the office snack machines. She whipped up a dandy one that satisfies longer and provides a quick boost of energy.

Healthful Fruit-and-Nut Mix
Combine 1 (9.5-oz.) container mixed nuts, 1 (6-oz.) container smoked almonds, 1 cup quartered dried apricots, and ¾ cup dried cranberries in a large bowl. Store in an airtight container.

Makes about 4½ cups. Prep: 5 min.

• Indulge a little more: Add a few morsels of delicious antioxidant-rich dark chocolate.
• For testing purposes only, we used Planters Select Cashews With Almonds and Pecans and Blue Diamond Smokehouse Almonds.
