If your oven is anything like mine around the holidays, it’s constantly full and pretty much overworked for a full month. Sometimes I just want to whip up a quick batch of Chex Mix for my family or guests and my oven {and microwave even} are already being {over}used. What’s a girl to do? Well turn to her handy dandy slow cooker, of course!
Did you know you can make Chex Party Mix in your CrockPot? Well you totally can. It tastes just as delicious, but doesn’t require the use of your oven. So you can go on with your frenzied holiday baking uninterrupted. It’s awesome! Here’s how:
3 cups Corn Chex cereal
3 cups Rice Chex cereal
3 cups Wheat Chex cereal
1 cup mixed nuts {I used cashews and almonds}
1 cup pretzel pieces
6 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons seasoned salt
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
In slow cooker, mix together the cereal, nuts, and pretzels. Whisk together remaining ingredients and pour over cereal mix in slow cooker. Mix well.
Cook uncovered on high for 90 minutes, stirring frequently {your house will smell amazing!}. Then spread Chex Mix on paper towels to cool, then store in airtight container.
