Last year, I entered a contest to create a new Chex Mix. I didn't win - but I still like my recipe, what's not to like? Garlic, Parmesan and Chex along with a few other things, too. Here's a great mix to add to your movie night.
Garlic Parmesan Chex Snack Mix
Ingredients:
1 cup Corn Chex
1 cup Rice Chex
2 cups Wheat Chex
2 cups Multi-Bran Chex
2 cups mini-pretzel twists
2 cups bite-sized parmesan crackers or cheddar fish-shaped crackers
1 cup cashew pieces
2 T butter or margarine
2 T water
1 envelope Savory Herb with Garlic soup mix
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
In large microwavable bowl, mix cereals, pretzels, crackers and cashews. Set aside.
In small microwavable bowl, microwave butter uncovered on High about 30-40 seconds or until just melted. Stir in water, soup mix. Slowly pour over cereal mixture, stirring as you pour. Next sprinkle parmesan cheese onto snack mix and keep stirring until coated.
Microwave for 5-6 minutes in two minute increments, stirring between cooking times. Cook just until a bit of browning starts - then spread out to cool on a jelly roll pan (11 x 16 in) before storing in an air-tight container.
