Why buy a own pre-made snack mix when you can make your own??? When I’m making a batch of snack mix, I always start with pretzels, a cheddar cracker component, and a combination of nuts. Sometimes I thrown in a few peanut butter chips or chocolate chips to shock the taste buds. I added roasted peanuts and smoked almonds to this mix and it was perfection! The different crunches from the pretzels, crackers and nuts will amaze. Mix it all up in a gigantic jar and you’re prepared for snack o’clock!

My aunt is famous for her snack mix. She makes it in garbage bags (the most efficient way to shake the seasoning in, of course!) and the best part is definitely Bugles. The one time she forgot them, our family nearly revolted.

girl. this is my jam. i like marshmallows and chocolate goldfish for the sweet stuff, and i dress the savory stuff (chex, pretzels, cheezits, oyster crackers, peanuts) with the veg oil / ranch seasoning mix just like my mom used to make.
For some reason my husband won’t eat snack mix components on their own but when I mix them together in a jar he eats them by the handful.

Oh man, this reminds me of my childhood! My mom used to make huge batches of snack mix to take on trips with us. I always made sure she added some sort of chocolate into the mix. Salty/sweet for the win!

For the longest time, I’ve felt that snack mixes are missing something if they don’t have an animal-shaped cheese cracker in them. Happy to see those yummy bunnies in there!
Also, my favorite more indulgent snack mix looks almost exactly like yours but is tossed with oil/BBQ spices and baked. Lawcy mercy!

Did you know that there are no goldfish/cheddar bunnies equivalent in Australia?! We’re basically living in the stone ages
