A savoury party mix of cereals and nuts
Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 40 minutes
Course Snack
Servings 24 1 cup servings

Equipment

  • 2 roasting pans large, the kind you can put a turkey in

Ingredients
  

  • 1 350 g box Crispix cereal
  • 1/2 350 g box plain Cheerios
  • 1/2 710 g box honey or plain Shreddies cereal
  • 5 cups mixed nuts (roasted and salted or plain)
  • 1/2 370 g bag pretzel sticks
  • 3/4 lb unsalted butter
  • 1.5 tbsp seasoning salt I use Hy's
  • 1.5 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tbsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tbsp celery salt
  • 1 tsp thyme, ground
  • 2.5 tbsp Worcestershire

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 F
  • In an extra large bowl or roasting pan, combine cereals, nuts, and pretzel sticks.
  • Melt butter in a small saucepan over med-low heat. Add spices and Worcestershire and combine to mix. Pour mixture over cereals and stir to combine well. It's easier to divide the mixture into two (or three) roasting pans and mix it like that.
  • Place roasting pans in oven and set timer for 40 minutes total baking time, and a second timer for every 8 minutes to stir so that ingredients aren't burning.
  • Remove after 40 minutes, stir, and let cool. The mix can keep for 5 days on the counter, or a few weeks in the fridge, but its best enjoyed within a few days of making.
