Introduction
pretzels, puffed corn, and rice chex are low-calorie additions to this snack mix, and unsalted peanuts and sesame sticks give lots of crunch and flavor. This makes a LOT!It can be made lower sodium by finding unsalted puffed corn (instead of brand-name Cornnuts) but those weren't available to choose. Also, unsalted pretzels and fewer sesame sticks will bring down the sodium count.
Okay, this isn't super low-calorie. But it is easy and delicious in moderation.
p.s. feel free to adjust seasonings to make this hotter... pretzels, puffed corn, and rice chex are low-calorie additions to this snack mix, and unsalted peanuts and sesame sticks give lots of crunch and flavor. This makes a LOT!
