For me, it had to be more salty and less sweet so I came up with this really BOLD flavored snack mix that is crunchy, salty and has a zing of spiciness and sweetness too. I remember, in my University days ( good ol' days *sigh*) me and my friends, we always wanted something to munch during lectures and during those 15 minutes break between lectures, we'd rush to the cafeteria to buy some snacks. While I was making this snack mix it reminded me of that time and brought a smile to my face - memories are treasures indeed!

So coming back to the recipe, this can be a great traveling snack, can be served at parties, good for game days, picnics, movie night and also can make a very interesting fall gift or party favor too. Here's a very pretty packaging idea and free printable tags by Make Bake Celebrate
