This snack mix gets its sweet from honey and dried cherries and its spicy from chili powder and cayenne pepper. These flavors meld well in your mouth with high-protein items like cereals, sunflower seeds, nuts, and pieces of 100% smoked beef snack sticks. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
