Mix It Up Party Mix

Party Mix! Does it grace your cupboards and counters at this time of year? Or maybe it’s a year-round snack for your household.

No matter what….try this new version for your New Year’s Party or low-key movie night.

Original Party Mix is oil, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic and seasoning salt. This NEW version is slightly different, but just as tasty…maybe even more so!

The great thing about this snack mix is that it is pretty interchangeable to suit dietary needs. I used generic gluten free rice squares (like Chex) and gluten free pretzels from Aldi. If you can tolerate corn, go ahead and add some corn squares.   Leave out the pretzels, or use “regular” if you can tolerate gluten. Same goes for the flavoring…use any nut butter or sunflower seed butter you can have and use coconut aminos for a soy free option in place of the soy sauce.

No matter, this is sure to please and go quickly! So double up or triple the recipe to make sure you have enough for everyone!
