Makes

12 cups

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Goldfish crackers (or other cheese crackers)
  • 2 cups Bugles
  • 2 cups Rice Chex
  • 4 cups Wheat Chex
  • 1 cup peanuts
  • 1 cup mini pretzels
  • 1 cup garlic bagel chips
  • 8 tbsp (1 stick) butter, melted
  • 2 1/2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 1/2 tsp seasoned salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 3/4 tsp onion powder

Steps

1

Preheat oven to 250°F.

2

In a giant bowl, combine all the dry ingredients—cereal, snacks, and nuts.

3

In a separate bowl, mix melted butter with Worcestershire, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Pour the butter mixture over the snack mix and toss gently until everything’s coated.

4

Spread onto one or two rimmed baking sheets. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15-20 minutes for even crispness.

5

Let the mix cool, then freeze briefly to lock in that buttery, seasoned flavor. After that, pack it up in airtight containers or zip-top bags—it’s road-ready.
