I love chex mix. There's something so decadently yummy by all those flavors combining into one snack. The only problem is it can be really bad for you and it takes forever. I did a recipe makeover, and came up with something amazing.
1 c chex cereal (I chose the whole grain)
1/3 c pretzel sticks
1/3 c mixed nuts (I used peanuts, cashews, almonds & brazil nuts)
2 tbsp dried fruit (I used a mix of cranberries, chopped dates & raisins)
2 tbsp Carob chips
1/4 c vegetable broth
1 tsp olive or grapeseed oil
2 tbsp worcestershire sauce (I keep a batch of this on hand:

Dash minced onion
Dash garlic powder (okay, several dashes)
Dash dash dash red pepper
Dash parsley flakes
Mix the broth, oil and seasonings together in a mixing bowl. Add pretzels , cereal & nuts. Mix well, ensuring everything is evenly coated. Pour into a microwave safe bowl, heat up for 3-4 minutes on high. Turn out on a paper towel to drain excess moisture. Add carob and fruit. Store in an air tight container, and snack with less guilt.
Women of God can never be like women of the world. The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith. We have enough greed; we need more goodness. We have enough vanity; we need more virtue. We have enough popularity; we need more purity. Margaret D. Nadauld
