Ingredients

  • 6 Cups Rice Chex
  • 5 Cups Pretzel twists
  • 2 Cups Variety rice crackers (I used the lotus food brand - green bag)
  • 2 Cups Whole raw almonds
  • 1 Cup Brown rye chips
  • 2 Cups Chow mein noodles
  • 1 Cup plant based or regular unsalted butter (2 sticks)
  • 4-5 TBSP low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 TBSP vegetable oil
  • 3 and 1/2 TBSP sugar
  • 2 TSP sesame oil
  • 1.9 Oz. jar of furikake seasoning (from Trader Joe’s)

Instructions

  1. Pre heat oven to 225 degrees and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Spray with non-stick spray. Set aside.
  2. Measure out rice chex, pretzel twists, variety rice crackers, whole raw almonds, brown rye chips and chow mein noodles. Mix everything together in a large bow. When I say large I mean LARGE. It will be a lot. You can also once mixed, just separate them in two bowls and have two batches.
  3. In a sauce pan over low heat, heat plant based butter. Once fully melted and bubbling, add soy sauce, vegetable oil, sugar and sesame oil. Whisk and mix well.
  4. Remove from heat, let cool for 1-2 minutes and pour over chex mix. Mix well with a spoon to ensure all pieces are covered as best as you can.
  5. Once chex mix is full coated pour furikake seasoning over and mix again to ensure it is well covered.
  6. Pour seasoned mixture over your 2 prepared baking sheets. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes. Make sure you are mixing, turning and checking on it every 5 minutes. Also, make sure they do not burn!
  7. Remove from heat and let cool. Once cooled keep in an air tight sealed container for 1-2 weeks or serve in mason jars or cute mini serving vessels.
  8. ENJOY!
