Ingredients

  • 3 cups Corn Chex cereal
  • 3 cups Rice Chex cereal
  • 1 cup mini pretzels (can use gluten free)
  • 2 cups mixed nuts almonds, cashews, walnuts and pecans
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter cubed, you can also use ghee instead
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground dry parsley
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast more if desired
  • 3 cups Moon Cheese any flavor

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 250°F. Using a very large mixing bowl, combine and mix together the Corn and Rice Chex cereal, mini pretzels and mixed nuts and set aside.
  • Using a small saucepan over low heat, whisk together the butter, garlic powder until combined and melted. This should only take a few minutes. Remove from heat and drizzle all over the dry snack mixture in your large bowl and toss well to coat.
  • Pour the mixture evenly onto 2 large (18 x13) rimmed baking sheet pans and sprinkle on the dried parsley. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Let cool for about 15 minutes.
  • When cooled, pour all of the snack mix back into the large bowl. Sprinkle the nutritional yeast (feel free to add up to a ¼ cup if you’d like) and more dried parsley if desired and your Moon Cheese and mix together. Enjoy and store any leftover snack mix in airtight containers with lids or zip-top bags.
