WWEW: Homemade Spicy Chex Mix

Welcome to....
What We Eat Wednesdays at OrchardGirls.blogspot.com
Today I will be sharing with you a fun recipe for any occasion.
 Homemade Spicy Chex Mix!
Homemade - Spicy Chex Mix
Oh man, this stuff is good. I'm eating some right now -yummmmay! Alrighty, here is what I used. (Basically you can add or take out anything you'd like) Most people enjoy their chex mix with nuts, but not this girl. I don't like any kind of nuts, so there ya go..weird i know.
Homemade - Spicy Chex Mix

Ingredients:
[dry]
1 cup rice chex
1 cup wheat chex
1 cup pretzels
1 cup spicy cheez-its 
1 cup cheerios
1 cup bagel chips
[sauce]
1/2 cup butter - melted
2 tablespoons cajun seasoning
4 teaspoons garlic powder
4 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon onion powder

Directions:
Preheat your oven to 250. In a large bowl mix all your [dry] ingredients together. Next prepare your [sauce] and make sure to mix the sauce completely. Now pour the sauce over the [dry] mixture and stir completely. Using two pans (with ridges is best) evenly divide out your chex mix. If you can fit it all on one pan that is fine too. (I doubled the recipe so I used two pans) Place in the oven for 1 hr - stir every 15-20 minutes. When they're done, pour them onto a couple of paper towels and let them cool for about 10 minutes. When done be sure to store your mix in an air tight container - after you eat a handful, or 5.

These turned out great, and it makes A LOT of mix, as I said, I doubled the recipe...cause, why not? haha.

  7. It's nice that you combined your own mix instead of using the premade chex mix. There's something about the bag chex I don't like. At least I can make my own now! Thanks for sharing this last week on my What Are You Doing? Blog Hop!
