Recipe: Cereal Niblets

One of the things we have always made at the holidays is Chex Mix.  But not just any Chex Mix!  The recipe we use is one my Nans (Great-Grandmother) wrote down off of the Chex box when they first printed it on the back...so to our knowledge this is the original Chex Mix.  On the recipe card I have, she calls it "Cereal Niblets," and here's how you make it...

It's super simple, you'll need the following:

For the cereal mixture, Pretzel Sticks, Cheerios, Rice Chex, Wheat Chex, and Cocktail Peanuts.  For seasoning, you'll need Garlic Salt, Celery Salt, Season Salt, Worcestershire Sauce, and butter.

Recipe Review: Sweet Potato Chews

About 6 or so months ago, I discovered Pinterest.  And promptly fell in love with it.

So did Geoff.

Mostly because my favorite things to pin are new recipes.  Which means I'm constantly trying new recipes that I discover.  Most are hits.

Bandit has also benefited from it.  You see, our little Bandit is allergic to corn.  Which is found in a ridiculous amount of commercially available dog products...it's not even good for dogs if they're not allergic!  So we're the obsessive dog parents in the store checking labels.  So every now and then, I'll try making homemade treats.  My last adventure was before we moved to Florida, they turned out pretty well, but it made a huge batch.

I decided this time I'd try something a little easier...and by a little easy, I mean super easy: Sweet Potato Chews.  (Click here for the source.)
