Texas Trash

Great stuff - it just won't last long - I recommend making two batches. One for your guests and one for yourself :-) I added goldfish crackers like you suggested and the cereal, pretzels and peanuts. Delicious!

This party mix was some mighty spicy stuff. I made it for New Year's and my family went through it like nobody's business. I did get a bowl full to taste. Very salty and zesty. We had lots of cold beer and iced tea to cool us off. Thanks Junebug. This is something I would definitely make again.

Great snack mix. I served it at Christmas and my family killed it. Perfectly seasoned. The burn comes on slowly and after a few bites, you are looking for something to drink. Loved it, Junebug. Thanks.

I added a tablespoon of sugar to the mix to make it sweet as well as salty/spicy. Very good!

This was great! I made it for my brother who is absolutely obsessed with spicy and crunchy foods. The only differences I had was less chex mix, more nuts, no pretzels, and I added air popped popcorn (taste preferences). I used pecans and coconut to offset the spiciness a bit and added extra tabasco sauce. My eyes literally watered a bit every time I opened the oven but it was JUST the way he likes it. Great for guys!

Eqsy to adjust the heat to suit your palette. I've had this with the addition of Bugle chips and Funyuns. Be creative!

this was a very good recipe and did have e good bold taste. i did change the garlic salt to garlic powder and made my own seasoned salt using Copycat Lawry's Seasoned Salt as I didn't have any in the pantry when I went to make this recipe. It was very easy to make and made 3 batches to give as Xmas gifts. Will be making again and hopefully soon.

I like this better than the 'Chex' mix variety, since this has a subtle bite to it. I doubled this and used green pepper sauce instead of Tabasco since I wanted this to be child friendly.

This snack is a Texas Tradition in all parts of the state!! Like many recipes, I've seen this made with most of the same basic ingredients listed here, but with some variation. My favorite thing to do is cut back on the salt (use only seasoning salt)and then replace the butter with an equivalent amount of fried bacon drippings. That REALLY adds something special to the mix!!!

I made this a couple of days ago, and will be making it again today since my husband has eaten all of the first batch! We absolutely love this, and the spice was just right to us (we're pepper heads--I may even kick it up!). I made another Texas Trash recipe first, but this one was by far the best. This one is definitely going in my permanent cookbook. Thanks!

I loved this. My husband just did not like the spice. Those who liked it, thought it was wonderfully addictive...and it made PLENTY for the party.

You can add me to the long list of people who liked this little mixture! Definitely a Texas-size yield, and plenty of zing and flavor! Easy to put together and take along to a party ... I didn't come home with any leftovers! Thanks, J ... Tis a keeper, for sure! Laudee

THIS MIX GOT MY ATTENTON! I changed nothing! It was fantastic and my staff loved it. This will definately go with me to Texas when I go visit my parents. Thanks for the wonderful "twist" on an old favorite!

Oh my goodness. This is delicious. I made 2 batches one for us that included the cayenne pepper and one for the kids omitting the cayenne pepper. This is a wonderful snack. All the ingredients taste so well together. Thanks for sharing. This is a definite "5 star" with our family and very easy to make.

this was really good. i changed it a little, i did not use the celery salt, seasoned salt, or garlic salt, just a preference of mine, i'm not a real salt lover. but i added garlic powder, and increased the hot sauce, and about a tsp of red pepper flakes! wow! great flavor. i will definately make this again.

Excellent for a change from the usual chex mix! VERY bold and spicy! I also used cajun seasoning instead of the seasoning salt - wow did that come out spicy and good!
