Chex Mix - Prize Package Giveaway

Thursday, December 9, 2010

Congratulations to our winner, Cheryl F., selected randomly via random.org (1-15>9).

 Once upon a time, right out of college, I lived in North Jersey with my BFF -  My BFF that I had known since Kindergarten... but she had been holding out on me. She waited 17 years to enlighten me on the existence of Chex Party Mix. She whipped it up one day and I've been a fan ever since. We regularly buy the bagged Chex Mix, but it's just not the same as baking it homemade.

Years later, I had another earth shattering experience (yes, I talk about food this way). At my sister-in-law's for a visit, she shared a concoction with me that I assumed was a secret family recipe. It was made lovingly by my niece with chocolate and peanut butter, something crunchy in the middle, and sprinkled with confectioner sugar. Myum, yum, yum. Wouldn't you know, I just found a recipe that is strikingly similar on the side of a new box of Rice Chex cereal?

For decades, savvy home cooks have been using crunchy Chex® cereal as the starting point for their family-favorite party mix recipes. Many Chex® Party Mix recipes can be made in the microwave in just 15 minutes and call for ingredients you already have in your pantry. From holiday gatherings to impromptu get-togethers, Chex® Party Mix provides a snack idea that will impress your guests in no time.

Whether you’re looking for sweet or salty, Chex
® Party Mix has something to offer every taste bud, making it the perfect go-to snack for entertaining this holiday season. Four gluten-free varieties of Chex cereal help ensure that even party guests with gluten restrictions can enjoy Chex® Party Mix recipes like the NEW Chex Lemon Buddies! Remember Multi-Bran and Wheat Chex are not gluten-free.

Visit your local Walmart to find free recipe cards for Chex Lemon Buddies as well as the new Chex Apple Pie Snack Mix and Tex Chex
® Party Mix recipes! The blend of flavors in the new homemade mixes will help you create irresistible new favorites and wow your crowd! 

GIVEAWAY:
1 winner will receive a prize package that includes 1 box of Rice Chex cereal, a plastic measuring cup set, and a canvas Chex Mix Tote Bag.

We have made Chex Party Mix for the holidays for years and years. We love the original recipe but the one from way back before they 'healthified' it up a bit. ;-) Each year we change up the add-ins a little. Lately it has been goldfish crackers and goldfish pretzels. :-)
