To me, nothing says the holidays like something sweet & something salty & a hot drink! Now, we have a lot of that sweet already, let’s tackle the salty! Say hello to a holiday tradition of mine, chex mix. And this Cashew Herb Chex Mix recipe has just enough herb to make it interesting. Take a stab & let me know what you think!
Ingredients:
- 2 cups Corn Chex cereal
- 2 cups bite-size shredded wheat cereal
- 2 cups pretzel sticks
- 1 cup cashews
- 1/4 cup butter or margarine

- 1 teaspoon onion powder

What’s Next:
Go ahead & preheat your oven to 325 F or 162 C.
In ungreased 13×9-inch pan, mix cereals, pretzel sticks and cashews. In 1-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Remove from heat; stir in tarragon, onion powder and pepper sauce. Pour over cereal mixture, stirring until evenly coated.
