THE BEST CHEX MIX
This is essentially the recipe on a box of Chex, adjusted to my taste. I like extra seasoning, a kick from hot sauce, and a few other adjustments. I also leave out the bagel chips; they just don't seem very Chex Mix-y to me.

Tips:
- Choose the right Chex cereal. The original Chex Mix recipe calls for Corn Chex, Rice Chex, and Wheat Chex. However, you can use any combination of Chex cereals that you like. Just be sure to use the same amount of each cereal.
- Use fresh nuts and pretzels. Stale nuts and pretzels will make your Chex Mix taste bland. Be sure to use fresh, crunchy nuts and pretzels.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. When you're baking the Chex Mix, be sure to spread it out in an even layer on the baking sheet. If you overcrowd the baking sheet, the Chex Mix will not bake evenly.
- Stir the Chex Mix frequently. While the Chex Mix is baking, be sure to stir it frequently. This will help to ensure that it bakes evenly and that the nuts and pretzels don't burn.
- Let the Chex Mix cool completely. Once the Chex Mix is done baking, let it cool completely before you store it. This will help to prevent the Chex Mix from becoming soggy.
