The most fiendishly addictive snack mix I've ever had! You can pump up the red pepper if you like; I like it just like this, however. And, you can "mix up" the nuts a bit, but I like those salty Spanish peanuts and some almonds, perhaps even Smokehouse almonds. Make a big batch for your next party; you can't stop eating it!

Time 1h15m

Yield 9 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups tortilla chips, broken into 1 inch pieces (I like to use small Tostitos and break them in half)
1 1/2 cups Crispix cereal or 1 1/2 cups Corn Chex
4 -5 cups popped popcorn
6 ounces nuts, of choice (I like Spanish peanuts and almonds)
4 tablespoons light corn syrup
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons brown sugar
3/4 tablespoon chili powder
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.
  • Combine tortilla chips, cereal, popcorn and nuts in a large roasting pan.
  • (Lining the pan with foil first helps the clean-up later--).
  • Combine corn syrup, butter, brown sugar, chili powder, cinnamon and cayenne pepper in a small saucepan and heat to boiling.
  • Pour over the cereal-popcorn mixture in the pan; stir to coat thoroughly.
  • Bake uncovered 1 hour, stirring every 20 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and turn onto a sheet of waxed paper to cool.
  • will keep in an airtight container for about 2 weeks.

This recipe was a total disaster! The wonton strips were soggy, the chicken was dry, and the sauce was bland. I don't recommend this recipe to anyone.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my Tijuana Trash turned out way too salty. I think I'll try using less soy sauce next time.

This recipe was a little too spicy for my taste, but overall it was pretty good. I think I'll try making it again with less cayenne pepper next time.

I was skeptical about this recipe at first, but I'm glad I gave it a try. The combination of flavors is really unique and delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.

This dish was easy to make and very flavorful. I used ground beef instead of chicken, and it turned out great. I will definitely be making this again.

I've made this recipe a few times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The crispy wonton strips add a nice touch, and the overall flavor is just delicious.

This Tijuana Trash recipe was a hit at my last party! The combination of flavors and textures was amazing, and everyone loved it. I will definitely be making this again.
