Trail Mix/ Pantry Clean up

I was working on cleaning out my pantry  I knew I had a lot of nuts and seeds thought why not make some trail mix.

I roasted the nuts and seeds with a little bit of salt in the oven at 400 for about 10 minutes.

I also had some oats and I know that some trail mix has those oat clusters that you find in granola or in cereal.  I tried to find a recipe online.  This version was made by simply mixing the oats with some honey and then baking.  For me they didn't really hold their shape.  The honey did add some sweetness.  But it didn't add much crunch.

I cut up some apricots and mixed it with raisins and dried cherries.  I added some chocolate chips and tossed everything together.
