Chex Mix

In my family, we have our own version of Chex Mix.  Over the years, the recipe (which probably originated from the original on the Chex cereal boxes) has progressed into the recipe below.  Every year, about this time, we start making Chex Mix and it remains a staple through the holidays.



Ingredients:
1 stick of butter*
1 1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
5 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
several dashes of hot sauce, depending on your preference

2 cups each of:
rice Chex, corn Chex, wheat Chex, and Cheerios
And various amounts (to your liking) of: pretzels, mixed nuts, Cheez-Its, and oyster crackers.

Directions:
Preheat oven to 250.  On a large jelly roll pan, place the stick of butter and allow it to melt completely while the oven heats.  Once the butter is melted, add the sauces and seasonings and mix until well blended.  Add cereals and other chosen ingredients.  Toss until pieces are well coated.  In a 250 degree oven, bake one hour, stirring every 15 minutes.

*you may need to add a bit more butter, depending on your cereal and addition amounts
