Chex Mix


Chex Mix? Seriously? I am doing a post on Chex Mix?

Well, not so much. More of a review. See, when preparing my Chex Mix for our Saturday night party, I figured I would play it safe and just use the recipe for the Original Chex Mix off their own site. Bad move. I started to get a little worried when it didn't seem like there was enough of the seasonings. But I poured and tossed away, hoping that the heating process would magically fix this and it would coming out how I expected it to taste. Wrong.


It came out completely underseasoned and totally blah (well, the "taste" was right, there just wasn't enough of it). Unfortunately, I didn't have time (nor the patience) to go back and fix it. As expected, the Chex Mix pretty much sat there while the Spicy Popcorn and Seasoned Oyster Crackers disappeared. Oh well, can't win them all.

If you're wanting to try out the "original" Chex Mix, you can find the recipe here. Just make sure you double the seasonings/butter.


Now I just need to get back to baking to get the rest of this mess off my table:

  1. If you need help getting rid of the mess I'll be right over to bake with you. Haha.

    Chex Mix is good but I haven't tried making it at home. It might fall under one of those "too salty and possibly unhealthy" snacks that defeat the purpose of trying to lose weight.

  2. I've never made the original Chex Mix recipe before, thanks for the warning. I'll stick to one of your delicious recipes!

    Mmmm the photo of all of the candy, chocolate is calling my name! :)

  3. You can mail me those goodies that you need to "get rid" of. I love Chex mix but have been experimenting with different flavors.
