Here’s yet another version of the ever-popular Nuts and Bolts - and a very different version, it is!
Toasted Snack Mix:
4 c. (1 L) small cheese crackers such as mini Ritz or cheddar Goldfish
4 c. (1 L) oyster crackers
4 c. (1 L) thin pretzel sticks
16 oz. (454 g) mixed nuts (about 4 c.)
½ c. (125 mL) butter or margarine
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1-½ tbsp. (22.5 mL) Worcestershire sauce
1-½ tbsp. (22.5 mL) seasoned salt
½ tsp. (2.5 mL) powdered mustard
½ tsp. (2.5 mL) hot sauce
Preheat oven to 275 deg. F. Combine crackers, pretzels, and nuts in large roasting pan. Add butter and garlic to small saucepan over medium-low heat, cooking garlic 3-to 4 min. or until butter starts to spit. Stir in remaining ingredients, allowing to simmer about 2 min. Remove from heat. Strain out and discard garlic. Pour butter mixture evenly over cracker mixture, tossing well to coat.
Divide and spread buttery mixture evenly over two parchment-lined large baking sheets. Bake 30 min., or until toasted, stirring once or twice during baking. Serve warm, if possible. Yields 10 generous snack-size portions.
