  1. We enjoyed this very much. I took it on our vacation and we nibbled on it throughout. Thanks for the easy recipe.
     
  2. This Mix was really good but I had the same problem with the cheerios shriveling and the pieces starting to burn a bit, even though I stirred it much more than every 30 mins. So after an hour I turned it to low for 1/2 hour then spread it out on a pan to dry and it was fine that way. I think next time I will just use the oven but the recipe itself was great, We could not stop eating it :)
     
  3. This was so easy to make in the crock pot. I followed the recipe as written other then I used garlic powder and onion powder instead of garlic and onion salt as that is what I had on hand. I also didn't add the tabasco sauce. I only had to cook mine on high for the two hours. Everyone enjoyed it. Made for Fall PAC 2008.
     
  4. My kids loved this! Because of allergies we had to make some subs though. We used sunflower seeds instead of nuts, and also used soy butter. I made a double batch, but I only used 6T of Worcestershire sauce. Also used garlic powder and onion powder instead of salt. I didn't have seasoning salt, so I skipped that. I didn't have shredded wheat, so we used cheerios, multi grain cheerios, corn & rice chex. I cooked it 2 hours on high, stirring often, and skipped the rest of the cooking. Worked Great! Thanks a bunch! This will now be my go-to recipe for chex snack mix. Much easier in the crockpot.
     
  5. I'm so sorry. I don't know what I did wrong. I followed the directions to the letter and it still flopped. My shreddies and cheerios went soggy then shrivelled and the pretzels turned black. Then all I could taste was worcestire sauce. Again, I'm sorry, I wish it had of turned out better.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live and work in Western NY with my husband and kids. I work part-time. I love all cookbooks, no particular favorites. I love to cook, collect recipes and cookbooks, trade recipes, read, listen to music, watch movies, spend time with my family. If I won the lottery, I'd spend the rest of my life in Italy cooking, cooking, cooking, and more cooking.
