As a child, I grew up with all kinds of holiday food traditions: a Christmas goose, cipaille (a French Canadian staple in our corner of the world), a giant party sub from Subway… the list goes on. Homemade Chex Mix, however, didn’t come into my life until I met my boyfriend. His mom makes homemade chex mix annually and it’s the absolute bomb. Honestly, the crunchy and salty deliciousness has me wondering where the hell it’s been all of my life. Thanks to my mother-in-law, I’ll never have to go without the tasty tradition again and now neither will you!
