MOM'S AMPED-UP SNACK MIX



Mom's Amped-Up Snack Mix image

Nothing fancy but impossibly addictive, this old-fashioned snack is included here for sentimental reasons. My mom made this for my dad's weekly poker games. She used Corn, Wheat, and Rice Chex, peanuts, and pretzels. My job was to carry the bowls into the game. I now make my own variation with wasabi peas, mixed nuts, packaged ramen, melted butter, and other goodies (though you can substitute fun ingredients until you find your own magic mix). When I bring it out during a football game, or a family gathering, or before a party, my husband literally whimpers, "Please, please, don't do this to me." It's the happiest protest you've ever heard. One secret I insist on: Always use the honey-sweetened corn cereal for that little extra sweet 'n' salty combination. And one other secret: Double the recipe and watch the smiles when they ask for more.

Every year at Christmas, my grandma would stuff our stockings with bags of Goop- her own version of Party Mix. To this day, the smell of Goop baking brings all of the cousins running in and sampling the batch! If you like regular Party Mix, then you'll LOVE this flavorful Goop!

NO-BAKE SNACK MIX



No-Bake Snack Mix image

This is my mom's no-bake snack mix recipe, and it's so much better than the normal snack mix recipes out there. It's tangy, spicy, and insanely addicting! I make it for my coworkers for Christmas and always get requests for the recipe. What's nice about it is you can vary the proportion of snacks that are in...more oyster crackers, less pretzels, etc. For reference, it makes probably 2 plastic gallon bags' worth of mix. This also freezes well to stay fresh longer.

Time 10m

Yield 25

Number Of Ingredients 9

¾ cup vegetable oil
1 ½ tablespoons salt-free seasoning blend (such as Mrs. Dash® Table Blend)
1 ½ tablespoons dried dill weed
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 (1 ounce) package dry ranch dressing mix (such as Hidden Valley Ranch®)
17 ½ ounces crunchy cheese puffs (such as Cheetos®)
15 ounces savory snack mix with toasted cereal (such as Chex® Mix)
15 ounces mini pretzels
12 ounces oyster crackers

Steps:

  • Whisk oil, seasoning blend, dill, and cayenne together in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on medium (50%) power for 3 minutes; this helps the oil to become a little thinner and easier to cover snack mix. Whisk in ranch mix until blended.
  • Place cheese puffs, savory snack mix, pretzels, and oyster crackers into a large container or a large paper bag. Pour oil mixture in a little at a time, stirring to evenly distribute.
