Savory Chex Cereal Mix

We always make cereal snack mixes over the holidays. Sometimes they are a bit sweet, but usually we indulge in this salty and savory combination.

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups corn Chex cereal
  • 3 cups wheat Chex cereal
  • 2 cups Cheerios cereal
  • 1 6.6-ounce bag Goldfish crackers
  • 1 cup nuts I used dry, roasted peanuts and slivered almonds
  • 6 Tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoons salt
  • 2 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
  2. Combine cereal, crackers, and nuts in a large roasting pan.
  3. Melt butter. Add mustard, basil, onion powder, salt, and vinegar. Stir to combine.
  4. Pour over cereal mixture and gently stir to mix well.
  5. Bake for one hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Store in an airtight container.
