CHEDDAR SNACK MIX

By aamundson

Ingredients

• 2 cups Oyster crackers
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon dry Ranch seasoning powder
• 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (more if you like things extra spicy!)
• 2 cups small pretzels
• 2 cups popped popcorn
• 8 ounces Cracker Barrel Extra Sharp Cheddar

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
In a medium bowl, add the crackers, vegetable oil, Ranch powder, and red pepper flakes. Stir to coat all the crackers.
Place a cooling rack (like you'd use to cool cookies) on a cookie sheet. Pour the oyster crackers over the cooling rack and spread them to form a single layer.
Bake for 10 minutes. Stir and bake for another 10 minutes. Cool before proceeding.
In a large bowl, add the cooled crackers, pretzels, and popcorn.
Dice the cheese into small pieces and add to the bowl. Toss to combine.
