Chex Mix has been a family holiday tradition my entire life, and probably even before I was around. My aunt used to make it with the requisite Chex cereal, mixed nuts, pretzels and wheat nuts (which I’m not even sure exist anymore). We’ve never been a garlic bagel chip or Cheez-It, or Goldfish family. But this year, I’m mixing up our Chex Mix a bit and trying some new additions. I can now confirm Chex Mix with Peatos Fiery Hot is a delicious decision.
Peatos are available in the produce section at stores including Baker’s, City Market, Dillons, Food 4 Less, Foods Co, Fred Meyer, Fry’s, Gerbes, King Soopers, Jay C Food Store, Owens Market, Pay-Less Super Markets, QFC, Ralphs, and Smith’s Food and Drug. Use the Peatos store finder to find a location near you.
They are also available for purchase online from Amazon.

Preheat oven to 250F.
In a large bowl, combine cereals, nuts, Peatos, and pretzels until evenly mixed.
Put a large roasting pan in the oven and add the butter. Let it melt completely.
Stir in the worcestershire, seasoned salt, garlic powder and onion powder until evenly distributed.
Add the cereal mixture and stir to coat with the butter. Cook for 1 hour at 15 minute intervals, stirring between each interval.
Pour the cereal mix onto newspaper, paper towels, or parchment to cool and let it absorb a bit of the butter. When cool, transfer to a covered container and enjoy!
