80's Movie Night Treats

This is a no-brainer. It's good, it's simple, kids and husbands alike can make it.

We had 80's movie night last weekend with my 13 year old brother. Since he was born in the 90's he is oblivious to Tom Hanks' classics like Big and The Money Pit. So we rented those along with The Indiana Jone's trilogy. It was a fun long weekend and it was made better by snacking on these. Next weekend we're watching Funny Farm, Sixteen Candles, and Fast Times at Ridgemont High- I'm so excited!

The Original Chex Mix from Chex

  • 3 cups Corn Chex® cereal
  • 3 cups Rice Chex® cereal
  • 3 cups Wheat Chex® cereal
  • 1 cup mixed nuts
  • 1 cup bite-size pretzels
  • 1 cup garlic-flavor bite-size bagel chips
  • 6 tablespoons butter or margarine
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons seasoned salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

In large microwavable bowl, mix cereals, nuts, pretzels and bagel chips; set aside. In small microwavable bowl, microwave butter uncovered on High about 40 seconds or until melted. Stir in seasonings. Pour over cereal mixture; stir until evenly coated. Microwave uncovered on High 5 to 6 minutes, thoroughly stirring every 2 minutes. Spread on paper towels to cool. Store in airtight container.
