One of my all time favorite snacks to munch on is chex mix. Homemade chex mix is the best. I remember sitting in a big recliner chair at my great grandma’s with a giant tub of her homemade chex mix in my lap. I sat there munching away while the adults played a game — and it was pure happiness. I’m using a crock pot for this recipe, so hopefully it will be even easier!
Here’s what you’ll need:
- Corn Chex cereal
- Rice Chex cereal
- Wheat Chex cereal
- Pretzel sticks
- Peanuts
- Cheerios
- Butter
- Worcestershire sauce
- Garlic powder
- Onion powder
Pour all the cereals, pretzels and peanuts into the crock pot and stir them around.
Melt the butter. Pour the Worcestershire sauce and the seasonings in the butter. Stir it around. Pour the mixture over the cereal mix.
Stir it around really well. Cook on low for 2.5 hours, stirring every 30 minutes. Be sure to stir it! The pieces that were on the bottom of the crock pot burnt a little for me.
Mine seemed a little soggy/wet, so I took it out of the crock pot and let it stand for a little bit — bam! It worked — perfect!
- 3 cups corn Chex cereal
- 3 cups rice Chex cereal

Hi, You have a plastic bag covering the crock pot, any specific reason why? Thanks so much,

Those are crock pot liners. There is no reason to use it other than to make cleaning up easier! I use them any time I use my crock pot, so I don’t have to wash the crock pot. Instead, you just take out the bag and throw it away!
