What Makes This Recipe Great
There are some things that I just cannot get enough of, and this year it seams to be different renderings of chex mix. Last month I created with sweet Apple Cinnamon Chex Mix, which was on repeat in the kitchen and also delivered to many friends. I love the simplicity and the versatility of a Chex mix. This time Thanksgiving Chex Mix is here, I wanted to bring the flavors of traditional Thanksgiving stuffing but in Chex mix form, so savory with a kick but also all the rosemary and parsley notes layered in.
Do you prefer stick pretzels over traditions shapes, perfect you can swap and use any shape. Need this to be gluten free, no worries just use your favorite gluten free pretzels and croutons and omit the bugles. This is the perfect recipe to whip the weekend before Thanksgiving to have on hand when relatives or kids say they are hungry or when the neighbors drop in for a quick hello. Let me know what you think!!!! Enjoy!
