Chex Mix Bold Party Blend

Monday, August 13, 2012

Ingredients:
1/2 tablespoon margarine
1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon soy sauce
1 1/4 teaspoons white cheddar popcorn seasoning
1 teaspoon Accent Flavor Enhancer
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
6 cups of a blend of Corn Chex, Wheat Chex, pretzels, mini crackers, cheese-flavored crackers, thin

Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.

2. Melt the margarine in a small bowl in your microwave oven and whisk with the oil, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce.

3. Combine the white cheddar popcorn seasoning, MSG, garlic powder, and onion powder in a small bowl.

4. Pour your blend of Chex, crackers, and pretzels into a large zip-top plastic bag. Whisk the margarine and oil mixture again and pour about a quarter into the bag. Seal the bag and shake. Repeat with the remaining margarine and oil mixture until the dry stuff is well coated.

5. Pour the mix out of the bag onto a large baking sheet and bake for 6 minutes, or until the mix is crispy but not brown. Stir the mix around halfway through baking.

6. Cool the mix for a couple minutes, and then pour it into another zip-top bag. Spoon about a quarter of the white cheddar popcorn seasoning mixture into the bag, seal it, and give it a good shake. Repeat this process until all of the seasoning is gone. Pour the contents of the bag into a serving bowl and munch out.

Makes 6 Cups

Note: We made this last year and while it is close, we noticed a difference. I would stick with the store bought version unless I was having a party. It might be more cost effective to make, then to buy. Unless you can get it for $1.00 a bag, which has been happening a lot at the grocery store.
