Helpful Hints

• A large roasting pan with high sides works best.
• The parmesan cheese is a higher phosphorus ingredient. 1/2 cup contributes 10 mg phosphorus per serving. Use less or omit if desired. 
• For a smaller batch, reduce cereal to one or two boxes depending on how much you want to make. Adjust other ingredients as well.

Making the regular Chex Party Mix is a tradition in our family. I was delighted to find Dill Nibbles--it was tasty and so easy to make--I experimented with various no salt herb blends-some tasted better than others-it is definitely worth making!
