Is It Cheaper To Buy Chex Mix Or Make Your Own?
It is always cheaper to make a homemade version versus purchasing an already made bag. You are able to control the amount of ingredients, therefore making it healthier. There may also be enough to create another batch or two.
How Long Will These Savory Chex Mix Recipes Stay Fresh?
If you store the mix correctly, they should last about 4 to 6 weeks. We like to use these Pyrex glass storage containers to place them in. Make sure the lids are tightly secured as to not let any air circulate. This will result in a stale mix.
Is it Ok to Freeze Chex Mix?
Yes! You can freeze homemade Chex Mix in gallon sized zip lock bags or you can Food Saver portions for up to 6 months. When ready to eat, take the bags out of the freezer and place them on the counter at room temperature to defrost.
What is a Good Substitute For Chex Mix in a Recipe?
If you are not a fan of this savory snack, you can substitute it with Cheerios, crackers, pretzels, cheese crackers such as Goldfish or Cheez Its, bagel chips, Bugles, or your favorite nuts.
Can I Eat These Savory Chex Mix Recipes Everyday?
Eating a little bit of Chex Mix everyday wouldn't be an issue. However, due to high sodium content, it is recommended to only eat a minimal amount daily.
