Spicy Snack Mix Recipe
I think just about everyone has fond memories from childhood of eating homemade snack mix. It’s such a tasty treat,
- Serves 10 -12
- Prep 5 minutes
- Cook 1 hour
- Total 1 hour
I go a little heavy with the Worcestershire sauce when making snack mix and I always seem to sneak a few extra splashes each time I stir it. When eating the mix, I tend to pick out the pieces that soak up an extra lot of Worcestershire. The wheat ones are especially good at soaking it up and they sometimes turn a little bit chewy. Love that!
Isn’t it obligatory to stand over a bowl- (often ours doesn’t even make it to a bowl, we eat it straight off the baking pan) and pick out your favorite pieces from the batch? My favorites are the Worcestershirey wheat chex, the cheerios, and the peanuts.
Hmmm….think I’m getting a little hungry for some snack mix. Be back later.
