Ingredients
½ 12-14 oz. Box Rice Chex Cereal
½ 12-14 oz. Box Corn Chex Cereal
½ 1 lb. Bag Pretzel Sticks
1 7.5 oz. Bag Bugles (Regular Flavor)
1 8.75 oz. Can Deluxe Mixed Nuts
1 C. Your Favorite Nut (or Use More Mixed Nuts)
½ C. Butter (1.5 Sticks)
-
2 Tbsp. Texas Chili Seasoning
-
½ Tbsp. Worcestershire Powder
-
1 Tbsp. Garlic, Powder
½ Tbsp. Hot Sauce (Use Your Favorite)
Directions
Preheat oven to 250°F. Combine the cereal, pretzels, Bugles, and nuts in a large bowl and stir to combine.
Melt the stick of butter in a sauté pan over medium heat, then add the dry seasonings and hot sauce. Stir well to dissolve the spices into the butter. Remove the mixture from heat.
Spoon the butter mixture over the dry ingredients and toss to thoroughly coat all of the snack mix pieces in the butter mixture.
Transfer the spiced snack mixture to a rimmed baking sheet. If the ingredients cannot be spread out into a single layer on the baking sheet, divide the mixture between two baking sheets.
Bake for 1 hour, stirring ever 15 minutes. Remove baking sheet(s) from the oven and allow the snack mix to cool before serving or storing. The mix will keep for up to a week in an airtight container.
