Ingredients

4 cups Rice Chex cereal
4 cups Corn Chex cereal
2 cups gluten-free O's cereal
2 cups gluten-free mini pretzel twists
1 4.25oz box Simple Mills Farmhouse Almond Flour Crackers ((I use cheddar or original))

Use gluten-free Chex cereal and pretzels to make the Chex mix gluten-free. You can find these ingredients at most grocery stores.
Add your favorite nuts, seeds, and dried fruits to the Chex mix. This will give the mix a variety of flavors and textures.
If you want a sweeter Chex mix, add some chocolate chips, melted chocolate, or candy melts.
You can also add some savory seasonings to the Chex mix, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or chili powder.
Be sure to mix the Chex mix thoroughly so that all of the ingredients are evenly coated.
Let the Chex mix cool completely before storing it in an airtight container.
