    Yummy! I am a little late getting around to it but, this is one of my favorite holiday treats too. I had to make mine gluten free this year for one my children…so it only had Corn Chex, Rice Chex and nuts….plus all the seasoning. But, it was still awesome.

    Melissa January 4, 2011 at 8:56 am

    That is awesome that she could still enjoy it! Thanks for sharing how to make it gluten free!

    Chex Mix has been a family tradition for many years here, too. I’m gonna try your recipe! It doesn’t require so much Wheat Chex, which comes in smaller boxes than the Rice or Corn Chex. Have you ever made this in the microwave rather than the oven?

    Reply

    Melissa@StockpilingMoms June 26, 2011 at 9:37 pm

    No, the oven makes it crunchy :-)

    Great recipe to use up quite a few boxes of Chex that I just purchased super cheap with coupons and sales ;) Thank you!

    Kelly Blackwell November 16, 2011 at 10:51 pm

    I was so excited to see this, because there is little I love around the holidays more than Chex mix. The funny thing is that I am never satisfied with the recipe on the box. I love homemade recipes that friends have shared with me, and I love to try them all. I can’t wait to give your mom’s version a try! Thank you!

    You use a lot more butter than I do but I use more worcestershire suace and seasonings. I’ll make about 15 double batches in the next 5 days.
