Ingredients

  • 3 cups Rice Chex cereal
  • 3 cups Corn Chex cereal
  • 3 cups Wheat Chex cereal
  • 1 cup pretzels
  • 1 cup mixed nuts
  • 1 cup cheese snack crackers (or whatever your prefer)
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon seasoned salt
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

  • Add cereal, pretzels, crackers, and mixed nuts (or peanuts) to the bowl of a slow cooker.
    3 cups Rice Chex cereal, 3 cups Corn Chex cereal, 3 cups Wheat Chex cereal, 1 cup pretzels, 1 cup mixed nuts, 1 cup cheese snack crackers
  • In a small bowl mix the melted butter, seasoned salt, garlic powder, onion powder and Worcestershire sauce.
    1/2 cup Unsalted butter, melted, 1 tablespoon seasoned salt, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • Slowly pour the sauce evenly over the cereal mix. Toss to coat evenly.
  • Place the paper towels on top of the slow cooker and then the lid, allow to cook on the low setting for 3 hours.
  • Every hour stir the mix to prevent burning.

Notes

Place several sheets of paper towels under the lid of the slow cooker. Long enough and thick enough to catch the moisture to fit your slow cooker. 
To Make in the Oven - Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Place the seasoned mix in a large roasting pan or a couple of rimmed baking sheets. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
Storing - Store in an air-tight container or resealable bag at room temperature for up to 3 weeks.
Freezing - Let cool to room temperature, store in a freezer-safe container or bag, and freeze for up to 3 months.
