Chex Mix

The classic party mix brings a savory crunch that's hard to stop eating! We like ours with a little kick, but it's not too hot.

Equipment

  • Large roasting pan

Ingredients

  • ½ tsp Red Pepper or to taste, we prefer Flat Iron
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • 4 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 4 tsp Lawry's Seasoned Salt
  • 1½ sticks Butter
  • 6 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
  • 6 oz Rice Chex about half of a normal-sized box
  • 6 oz Corn Chex about half of a normal-sized box
  • 6 oz Wheat Chex about half of a normal-sized box
  • 2 cups Pretzels
  • 10 oz Mixed Nuts

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven to 250°F, add butter to a large roasting pan, we use our big turkey roaster but you could use a large disposable one if need be. It needs to be big so you can stir the Chex mix.
  • Place roasting pan in the oven until the butter is melted.
  • Add the seasonings and Worcestershire sauce to the melted butter and stir to combine.
  • Add the Chex, pretzels, and mixed nuts and stir thoroughly to coat the entire mix in the butter and seasonings.
  • Place the mix in the 250°F oven and roast stirring well every 20 minutes until the butter is absorbed and fairly dry. This usually takes about 1 to 1½ hours, you'll know by taking a sample with each stir when it's dry and crisp.

Notes

This recipe is a touch salty, but it's meant to be. If you'd like it lower in salt omit some of the seasoned salt.
