Sweet and Savory Chex Mix


1 cup honey
1/4 cup vegetable oil
5 cups of rice chex
1/2 - 1 cup oats
1/4 cup butter
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp celery salt
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
12oz nuts

1. Mix honey and oil. Set aside.

2. In a large bowl, mix rice chex and oats. Pour honey mixture over and mix well.

3. Lightly spray a baking sheet and spread cereal mix evenly. Bake at 300F for 20 minutes, stirring 1-2 times, until golden brown.

4. Meanwhile, melt butter in a medium bowl. Then add garlic powder, oregano, celery salt, and Parmesan cheese. Mix well.

5. Mix in nuts to the butter mixture. On another baking sheet, spread nuts evenly. Bake at 300F for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

6. Allow nuts to cool when finished. Combine cereal and nuts together in a large bowl. Mix well.

Tip: most of the oats I added ended up sticking to the pan. I suggest sprinkling the oats on top of the cereal when first putting it in the oven, so they don't come off as easy.
