At this time of year, my husband and I rarely spend a night in front of the TV without a bowl of Chex Mix to snack on. There are as many variations on the traditional Chex Mix recipe as there are people who enjoy it, and I’m no exception. I like to customize my mix to include just the ingredients I like best, and none of the stuff I don’t. For example, I love the Wheat Chex but hate the Rice Chex. I love the nuts, but not the pretzels. I also like to greatly increase the flavorings and spice it up a little.
If you like your Chex Mix spicy and bold, give my recipe a try!

This chex mix is the best!
Thanks, Leslie
This is excellent! Thanks!
This was good…. It had too much salt for me… I would use cayenne pepper,chili powder, paprika, black pepper, instead of the Cajun seasoning and all it’s salt.. The Worcestershire sauce has plenty of salt, just kick up the peppers without the salt..Good recipe, make it your own
Carol, we agree that any recipe can be adapted to suit your own tastes. I personally like my Chex Mix really salty, so this is just right for me!
