Ingredients

• 3 cups Corn Chex
• 3 cups Rice Chex
• 3 cups Wheat Chex
• 1.5 cups Mini pretzels
• 1 cup Mixed nuts
• 1 cup Bagel chips, broken into bite-sized pieces
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Seasoned salt
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the Corn Chex, Rice Chex, Wheat Chex, pretzels, mixed nuts, and bagel chips. Gently toss to evenly distribute.

Step 3

In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter (about 30-45 seconds in the microwave).

Step 4

Add the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and seasoned salt to the melted butter. Stir until fully combined.

Step 5

Pour the buttery seasoning mixture over the dry ingredients in the large bowl. Using a spatula or your hands, gently toss to ensure all pieces are evenly coated.

Step 6

Transfer the mix onto a large, rimmed baking sheet, spreading it out in an even layer.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even toasting.

Step 8

Remove the mix from the oven and allow it to cool completely on the baking sheet. The mix will crisp up further as it cools.

Step 9

Once cooled, store the Chex Party Mix in an airtight container or serve immediately.
