Furikake Chex Mix

Here I am, writing my blog again.  I have already been working remotely for 2 weeks  due to the Coronavirus outbreak.  State announced the “Safer-At-Home” order on March 19, so all of us are now home 24/7.  As of today, USA has 331,234 confirmed cases, this number is rising rapidly.  Besides purchasing necessities at the markets, cleaning, cooking or baking is a good way to kill time.

This Hawaiian-style chex mix is incredibly addictive, it is very crunchy with a combination of sweet and savory taste.  It is perfect to have for parties, gatherings and even for just the family!  Get your youngsters to bake together and have some family quality time!

Ingredients:

2 cups Rice Chex
2 cups Corn Chex
2 cups Wheat Chex*
2 cups Pretzel
1.5 cups Gardetto’s Garlic Rye chips
170g Butter
¼ cup Honey
½ cup Brown sugar
1 Tbsp Soy sauce
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 bottle (about 2oz) Furikake seaweed
