I always have the munchies at night, especially Friday night, and this snack was perfect for the late night munchies. It was also a big hit with my football-watching boys.
Here's the Recipe (from chexmix.com):
8 Cups rice chex
About half a pot of popcorn (Didn't measure it out)
2-3 T. oil
2 tsp. chili powder
1-2 tsp. garlic powder
1/3 C. parmesan
1/4 C. Peanuts (we left them out because we didn't have any.)
Mix it all together, spread on a cookie sheet, and bake at 350 degrees for about 10-15 minutes, stirring once.
Be careful though. It's addicting. We ate almost the entire bowl that night. I think it gave me lots of energy for my long run the next morning though because it went much better than I was expecting. We did 15 miles with a gradual speed increase throughout, and I finished feeling like I love running. That's always a sure sign of a good long run.
What do you like to eat when you get the munchies?
That sounds like a perfect late night snack, I'll have to try it!
