Guest guest Posted October 15, 2003 Report Share Posted October 15, 2003 WARNING: This recipe is addictive! Only make it if you want to gain weight or are going to serve it to a group of people so you won't be tempted to eat the whole thing yourself! *lol* If Crispix cereal is vegan then this recipe is also, that is if you use a vegan margarine. I don't have a box right now to check it, but I know Corn Chex are vegan, so I imagine Crispix might be as well. Anyway, this is really delicious. A nice little nibble snack that my kids like for movie night or when we play dominoes. I have noticed my dominoes need a washing do to sticky fingers though. Sweet Snack Mix 6 cups Crispix cereal 1 can (10oz) mixed nuts 1 package (10 oz) pretzel sticks 3/4 cup maragrine 3/4 cup packed brown sugar In a large bowl, combine the cereal, nuts and pretzels. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt butter. Add brown sugar; cook and stir until dissolved. Pour over cereal mixture; stir to coat. Place a third of the mixture on a greased 15x10 inch baking pan. ake at 325 for 8 minutes; stir and bake for 6 minutes more. Spread on waxed paper to cool. Repeat with remaining mixture. Store in airtight containers. Yield: 14 cups ~ PT ~ Never feel self-pity, the most destructive emotion there is.

Well at least most of the fats in the nuts are unsaturated (bout 21/2 grams per saturated) and the nuttos are high in protein and have no cholesterol (could go the low-salt mixed nuts...booo . You can sub. in some fat-free pretzles (i usually can't tell the difference). Of course I'd have to get rid of the brown sugar and sub some Tabasco (maybe garlic Tabasco, haven't tried that yet, yum) or some sort of hot sauce, MUAHAHAHA!
