Monster Crunch

by Mary Ann Tucker
A slightly sweetened snack mix adults and children will enjoy.

8 cups square rice or corn cereal
2 cups miniature pretzel twists
1 cup whole almonds
1 cup pecan halves
2/3 cup margarine
1/2 cup honey

directions
Combine the cereal, pretzels and nuts in a large bowl.

In a saucepan, melt the margarine and honey together. Pour this mixture over the cereal and stir to coat. Spread onto cookie sheets. Bake at 350 degrees F for 12 to 14 minutes, or until lightly browned. Cool completely, then break apart and store in an airtight container.

suggestions
Set bowls of this mix out around the house for guests to munch on.
