I first heard about this snack from my mom. When she told me about it I thought, really? I couldn’t imagine it to be much of anything. Then when I got my hair done I saw a bowl of it on the reception counter at the salon. My hairdresser encouraged me to try some, so I did. I knew immediately why my mom wanted to spread the news about this taste treat.
Dry roasted peanuts and candy corn. That’s it. I mixed equal parts of each and found it to be most delicious combination of sweet and salty. It tastes like a salted nut roll. And the colors are so autumny! The bowl of my snack mix went perfectly with the autumn anniversary flowers Husby gave me.
I love having snack mix out for company, even if my company consists only of Captain Jack Sparrow on my TV screen. Do you have a favorite recipe for snack mix? Please share!
OMG – that just sounds sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good!!! Damn – now I’ve got the munchies…
Oh yeah, Rhonda ~ it’s great for the munchies. Husby and I finished up this big bowl in a few short days. Packing on that fat for the Minnesota winter to come!
