Cooking Kids

Here’s a snack mix you can make and store to give the kids something different in their lunch boxes next week.

1 1/2 C. cashews or other favorite nut

1 C. each of cheese puff balls, corn chex, rice chex, mini pretzels and chow mein noodles

1/2 C. melted butter

1 tbsp. soy sauce

1 tsp. worcestershire sauce

1/2 tsp. seasoned salt

1/4 tsp. each of chili powder and hot pepper sauce

In a bowl, combine the cashews, cheese puffs, Chex cereals, pretzels and chow mein noodles. In another bowl, combine the remaining ingredients and then pour over the snack mix. Toss to coat. Spread out on an ungreased baking sheet and bake at 250* for 1 hour, tossing every 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, cool and store. Serve in plastic baggies or containers in your kids’ lunch boxes.
