About This Recipe
"Yummy variation on party mix. For garlic and dill lovers. You can substitute Chex corn or rice cereal for the Crispix - I decide between Chex and Crispix based on what's on sale. NOTE: Based on feedback received, in Jan. 09 I reduced the amount of garlic powder to 1/2 tsp. It is still plenty of garlic flavor but not as overpowering. :)"
Ingredients
- 3 cups kellogg's Crispix cereal
- 3 cups cheez-it white cheddar crackers or 3 cups cheez-it ranch crackers
- 1 cup small pretzels
- 1 (5/8 ounce) packet dry ranch dip mix
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper
- 1 teaspoon dill weed
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
Directions
- In a large microwaveable bowl, mix cereal, crackers and pretzels. Set aside.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine remaining ingredients and mix well.
- Pour seasoning mixture over cracker mixture, stirring as you pour. Mix well.
- Microwave on HIGH for 1 minute. Gently stir the mixture. Microwave on high 1 more minute.
- Spread on paper towels to dry and cool. Store in an airtight container (if there are any leftovers!).

"An outstanding snack. I made this last night, and bought the container to work today. We all snacked on this during break and lunch, just reheated in the microwave for about 45 seconds. I did add an extra 1/2 cup of ranch crackers to this. All gone by the end of lunch.Plan to make for the Super Bowl again later this week. Made for PRMR tag."

"A great snack with little to no guilt. I opted out of the cheez-it's and used 4 cups of RiceChex and 4 cups of CornChex. Used 2 cups of pretzels but kept to the same amount of the rest of the ingredients. Perfect amount of seasoning for me. Thanks for a nice snack. Made for ZaarStars."

"My DD wanted to watch Mulan with the princesses so I made this wonderful snack. I didn't have Crispix (N/A). I liked the dill in it."

"What a fun snack treat! I loved the method of preparing , by using the microwave! To make this a 5 star recipe, for us, I would cut back on the seasoning OR use more Crispix/pretzel/Cheez-it mixture. I might omit the dill, too. I will definitely try this again because it's a great, economical snack to have on hand for the kids. Thanks!"

"excellent snack mix. made for company last night, everyone enjoyed it. Good to munch on while loosing at cards. LOL I might take Brooke's advice and add more cereal, it was a bit strong, but still a keeper. Great flavor. Made for 123 tag, thanks apple"

"What an easy snack! I threw this together in a rush before the game yesterday. I made a half batch for 5 of us and we ate it the entire bowl. I did add half a cup extra of the cereal, pretzels and cheez-its... I think the seasoning might have been a little strong if I hadn't."
