This is not a low carb recipe, but rather just a snack mix I like to have on hand for kids and company. This recipe makes a double batch. It is also NOT gluten free.
Melt 1 cup butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add to the melted butter:
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons seasoning salt
1 tablespoon total from the following: Rosemary, garlic granules, thyme, celery seed, basil
Set the mixture aside.
In a large bowl mix:
12 cups "cereal" from the following: Cheerios, Chex, pretzels, chow mein noodles, Cheezits, Mini Shredded Wheat, etc.
3 cups peanuts
Pour the melted butter mixture over the cereal mixture and stir well. Pour onto a large baking sheet with a rim and bake at 250F for about 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
Alternate "rush method:" Pour the coated cereal mixture into a 9"x13"x2" baking pan and cover with foil. Bake at 350F for 20 minutes. Pour the baked mixture onto a large baking sheet with a rim and bake an additional 5 minutes uncovered at 250F to crisp.
Store tightly covered at room temperature.
Enjoy!
