S’mores Chex Mix

Halloween in just weeks away and the neighbors and I are planning a big community party and parade. We’re a small community but there are lots of families that would really enjoy this event. I’m in charge of snacks for the party after the parade. I know with kids there are lots of food restrictions but Chex Mix is one of those things that can lots of different tastebuds.

Our S’more’s Chex Mix isn’t geared just towards the kids though. This fall favorite flavor seemed like a no-brainer when it come to putting together a menu plan for our party. Our weekend firepits are gonna have to come to a stop sometime soon but the flavors can be enjoyed all year long just by whipping up a quick batch
