Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Corn Chex cereal
- 3 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 3 cups Wheat Chex cereal
- 1 cup Mini pretzels
- 1 cup Cheez-It or cheddar crackers
- 1 cup Mixed nuts
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1.5 teaspoons Seasoned salt
- 3 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
Instructions
In a large, microwavable-safe bowl, combine the Corn Chex, Rice Chex, Wheat Chex, mini pretzels, cheddar crackers, and mixed nuts.
In a microwavable liquid measuring cup or small bowl, melt the butter on high for 30-40 seconds in the microwave, or until completely melted.
Stir the Worcestershire sauce, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and onion powder into the melted butter until dissolved and well combined.
Drizzle the butter mixture evenly over the dry ingredients in the large bowl, gently tossing the mixture to evenly coat.
Microwave the mixture on high for 1 minute, then remove the bowl and stir thoroughly to ensure even cooking.
Repeat microwaving in 1-minute increments, stirring after each session, for a total of 5 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent overcooking.
Let the mix cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally to break up any clumps.
Once completely cool, transfer the mix to an airtight container for storage or serve immediately.
