Pizza Flavored Snack Mix

Made it gluten free by using popcorn instead of pretzels, and used half vegetable oil and half olive oil. Tastes more like parmesan bread sticks than pizza, but still tastes very good! Very easy and makes a nice gift for those who eat a gluten free diet!!!

I did a "pantry cleanout" for this one. I used pretzels, half a box of wheat thins (that no one was ever going to finish), half a box of cheeze its (that was going to go stale), and didn't have any cereal on hand to go with this. anyhow mixed all of that together, and have a new favorite. what a money saver to use what I already had on hand, and now the neglected snacks have become something new and yummy. I also added garlic salt, basil thyme and oregano, since my mix was bland. I also doubled everything, and glad I did.

My family wasn't bowled over by these, but there was nothing wrong with them....thus the 3 stars. They were ok, but my family just did care for them. I'm glad I tried, and have to say I'm disappointed they didn't like this, I thought it would be a great addition to our snack mix collection. Thank you for sharing.

This sure is a kid pleaser! My kids like this a lot. I wasn't that impressed with it, but that's okay, since the snack mix is for my kids anyway. I will plan on making this often so I have some on hand for the kids to eat at ballgames this summer. It seems like we are never home to eat during the summer, so this will be a good snack for that. I did use the entire box of Corn Chex and the entire package of spaghetti sauce. I used half a bag of pretzel sticks since I couldn't find the nuggets, and I doubled the oil (used canola). I think I will double the parmesan cheese next time and see what that does. I know you don't need to bake it, but I did; 250 degrees for 20 minutes. I thought this helped with the flavor. Thanks for sharing.

Turned out GREAT! I also added Pizza flavor Goldfish, and White Cheddar Cheez-its. Delish!

Delish! Instead of purchasing spaghetti sauce mix, I used Spaghetti Sauce Mix. I omitted the parmesan cheese, and used the equivalent of an entire envelope of spaghetti sauce mix (1/4 c.), as well as added 2 tsp. extra of each basil and oregano, based on Luvin' Texas's review. I couldn't find pretzel nuggets so used tiny twists, which turned out well. I think the addition of Goldfish or Cheese-It crackers would be good in here too. I love that it doesn't have to bake and that the oil amount is on the low end. All in all, it's a great snack - thanks for posting.

This is a delicious snack mix. My son, who is a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fanatic, has renamed it Ninja Turtle Snacks (lol, because of the pizza flavor!). The changes I made were that I halved the recipe, added goldfish crackers, used about 2 T. of the spaghetti seasoning, about the same amount of cheese, and no additional garlic powder (my mix had garlic in it). I also baked it for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, to get it nice and crisp.

I found the same recipe on another website with the following exceptions, 2 tsp. oregano, 2 tsp basil and 3 Tbl. of the spaghetti sauce mix, everything else is the same. I followed it and when ahead and added the whole package of the mix, there was very little left. Could not find any of the little pretzel squares so I used the tiny loops. This is so good. I made it for my Dad's birthday, they love this type of snack. Thanks!

Delicious. The only bad thing about it is that I couldn't stop eating it!

Very good! I drizzled the oil over all the ingredients and combined in one of my roaster pans. I noticed some of the seasonings weren't sticking so I sprayed a little bit of non cook spray(veg. oil) over the mix and it helped alot! Then after I got everything combined I baked this on the lowest setting on my oven for 15-20 mins stirring every 5 mins or so. Thanks!

Nice change from reg. Chex mix. I reallly like that I didn't have to bake this. Used double the spaghetti sauce mix. Tastes better after sitting a few hours and letting the flavors soak in. May add cheese nips or something next time. Thanks!

What a fun change from the traditional snack mix flavors! I increased the recipe by 50% since a box of Crispix is 12 cups. I used about 3 extra tablespoons of oil to get it all coated. Next time I'd increase the spaghetti sauce mix by at least double and maybe triple so that the garlic isn't the predominant flavor. A few people suggested adding nuts too. I love the fact you don't have to bake this snack mix. That's a real time saver!

You can't beat this recipe for ease and speed of preparation. Even better, the taste is great. Its appeal isn't limited to kids. I used pretzel sticks and extra virgin olive oil.

I used pretzel sticks and small pretzels. I alsp used half corn chex and half wheat chex. I did used the full amount of the mix and added a little more cheese. It only lasted about 20 minutes, wish I made the full amount! I let it sit 24 hours befor I served it and I thought it tasted better then when I tried it right after I made it. Definately an easy corwd pleaser!!

I was thrilled that this snack didn't require any cooking! I whipped this up in five minutes. I used the brand "Spatini" powdered spaghetti sauce mix (which includes garlic powder) and omitted the extra garlic powder because I really liked it as is. I am going to put this out for a snack tomorrow on Easter. This was a nice change from Chex Mix.

I didn't have pretzel nuggets, so I used regular pretzel sticks. We all enjoyed this mix. The flavor is not intense, but is cumulative. I think next time I might bump up the garlic and spaghetti sauce mix.
