Zesty BBQ Chex Party Mix

This chex party mix has a little kick with hot sauce and lots of BBQ flavor! It makes for the perfect snack to set out for guests to nibble on, after school, game nights / movie nights, tailgating, road trips and the holidays. I always make this big batch and see it disappear throughout the week. Save money and make this delicious chex party mix at home, plus the smell it makes as it slowly bakes, ahh it’s just so good!

This party mix also makes for a great hostess gift to bring to friends and family, I like to fill a large mason jar tied with a bow and some wine.

It’s also especially good to bring a large container full to anyone who has a newborn baby. I used to eat this in the middle of the night as I bounced my babies around the house during those long nights.
