Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C). In a large bowl, combine the Corn Chex, Rice Chex, Wheat Chex, pretzels, and mixed nuts.
  2. In a separate small bowl, melt the butter, then stir in the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and seasoned salt.
  3. Pour the butter mixture over the cereal mixture, stirring gently until all ingredients are evenly coated.
Baking

  2. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before serving or storing in an airtight container.

Notes

Feel free to experiment with different seasonings and add-ins like bagel chips, cheese crackers, or even candy for a sweet and salty twist. For a spicier version, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the butter mixture. Always ensure the mix cools completely for maximum crispness.
