Trying to figure out a recipe for trail mix that roughly follows the 40 carb/30 protein/30 fat ratio. I'm not a math genius and having trouble figuring it out. Would love to mix something like granola, raisins, peanuts and banana chips. Have scoured the internet but can't find recipes with this kind of nutritional info. It's for serious hiking so denser in calories is ok.

    I think the thing you'll struggle with here is the protein portion. Nuts have some protein but are mostly a fat source. Probably best to find some high protein recipes for trail mix and enter them into the recipe builder to check
