8cupsof cereal and nuts if you want(pretzels, cheerios, chex, life, shreddies, gold fish, cashews....)
Instructions
FOR THE RANCH SEASONING
First make your ranch seasoning. Mix all the herbs, spices, and seasonings together in a mason jar or similar. Give a a good shake to combine. Taste it.
FOR THE NUTS AND BOLTS
Add the oil, measured ranch seasoning, extra dill and garlic powder to a bowl and give it a good whisk to combine. Set aside.
Add the cereal and pretzels (or whatever combination that you choose) to a large bowl or container. Pour some of the oil mixture over the dry mix and stir really well. Continue to pour and stir in batches until the oil mixture is gone.
Let the nuts and bots recipe just sit for a while to absorb the oil. Let it sit for an hour or so and mix again. Continue this pattern till the mixture starts to get dry and all the pieces are well coated.
Notes
1. You can also use pre-packaged ranch seasoning if you want to. You would use two packages for this recipe.2. Taste the seasoning before you mix it for the nuts and bolts cuz you might want to add a touch more salt or a little more citic acid if you want it a bit more tangy. 3. You can also use this Ranch Seasoning to make a salad dressing and best of all NO MSG or other crap! Just mix with some mayo and a little coconut milk. We havent done this yet so we cant give you exact measurements yet. 2 tbsp. of this mixture = 1 pkg. hidden valley ranch
