      This is really good. I sent it to a Lodge meeting, and the only thing that came back was for more, but with a KICK next time. The batch I'm making tonight will have 1 1/2 pkgs of Ranch, and some Wasabi powder. Thanks for the great recipe!!!

      I made 1/2 the recipe tonight for my son and dad to snack on this weekend and this was SOOOO quick and easy! 15 minutes total! I used peanuts instead of pretzels and oyster crackers in place of the cheese crackers, just for family preferences. Also used fiesta ranch dressing mix and HIGHLY recommend everyone try this! Thanks sooooo much! My 8 year old son said, "That is definitely the best EVER!!!"

      I just saw that Chex mix offered a ranch flavor and wanted to try it at home. This recipe was easy and delicious. I substituted cheerios for cheese crackers b/c that's what I had, added 1 minute (I like xtra crunch!) and a little more ranch (I like the zing, Kay). My kids love it, too! Thanks for a yummy, easy recipe!
