Ingredients

Servings

Party Mix

  • 4 cups Crispix cereal (or 2 cups each: Corn Chex, Rice Chex)
  • 2 cups wheat chex
  • 2 cups pretzels mini
  • 2 cups cashew roasted, salted
  • 2 cups Cheez-It Grooves original Cheddar (may sub traditional Cheez-Its)

Herb Butter Sauce

  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp EACH garlic powder
  • 1 tsp EACH garlic salt
  • 1 tsp EACH dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp EACH onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp EACH dried parsley
  • 1/2 tsp EACH dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Cheese

  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese grated

Optional

  • 1 1/2 cups butterscotch chips (see my opinion in the post)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray. Add all Party Mix ingredients to baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together all of the Herb Butter Sauce ingredients then evenly pour over Party Mix. Toss until Party Mix is evenly coated. Spread mix out into an even layer.
  3. Bake at 250 degrees F for 1 hour and 15 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.
  4. Remove from oven and sprinkle with 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese. Toss until evenly coated. Let Party Mix cool completely (cereal will crisp as it cools). Toss with butterscotch chips if desired (you can sample some mix with the butterscotch chips to see if you want to add them to the whole thing).
  5. Store in an airtight container for up to three days then refrigerate if desired. (Parmesan does not have to be refrigerated immediately due to its low moisture content.)
