Recipe Introduction
Homemade Chex Mix is so much better thant he new fangled pre-packaged kind! I basically go by the recipe below, but add a bit more garlic and worcestershire, to my taste.
I, personally, have never tried the microwave method.
List of Ingredients
1 cup mixed nuts
1 cup pretzels
1 cup garlic-flavor bite-size bagel chips or regular-size bagel chips,
broken into 1-inch pieces
3 cups Corn Chex cereal
3 cups Rice Chex cereal
3 cups Wheat Chex cereal
6 tablespoons margarine or butter*
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
3/4 teaspoons garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoons seasoned salt
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Recipe
Heat oven to 250. Melt margarine in large roasting pan in oven. Stir in
seasonings. Gradually stir in remaining ingredients until evenly coated.
Bake 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Spread on paper towels to cool.
Store in airtight container. 12 cups snack.

Microwave Directions: Melt margarine in large microwavable bowl uncovered
on High. Stir in seasonings. Gradually stir in remaining ingredients
until evenly coated. Microwave uncovered on High 5 to 6 minutes,
thoroughly stirring every 2 minutes. Spread on paper towels to cool.
