Notes

  • I use two wooden spoons to stir the mix. This helps it get thoroughly tossed. 
  • You can swap out any of the crunchy ingredients. Just don't mess with the sauce. 
  • Chex Mix stores well in an airtight container. It will be good for 3-4 weeks.
  • It's fun to use holiday-themed pretzels around the holidays.
 
This is a great recipe to make as a gift any time of year. Just change the packaging to fit the occasion!
