Grandma Bray’s Garbage Bag Snack Mix
Happy Friday! As promised, here is the recipe for my grandma’s other snack mix – the garbage bag mix. I know, sounds weird but the name is just because you make it in a garbage bag! Easy clean up! In my opinion, this mix is wayyy better than the OG cereal snack, but as I said before – my family is not a fan of change. One year my grandma changed the shape of the pretzels in the OG cereal snack and my Uncle Blake just had a fit! However, most of us grandkids think the garbage bag mix is better. All the fun snacks mixed with the buttery ranch flavoring is pretty much the best salty snack ever.
