Chex Cereal – I used a mix of Rice Chex, Corn Chex, and Honey Nut Chex. However, you can use whatever cereal mixture you’d like in your crockpot chex mix recipe. Pretzels – To make the size of everything more uniform, I use mini pretzel twists. You can also use mini pretzel sticks. Mixed Nuts – The mix I use has peanuts, almonds, cashews, and walnuts. If you have a nut allergy, then you can leave these out. Just add another cup of another ingredient to make up for it. Cheez Its – These cheese crackers add such a yummy flavor to the mix. Sauce – Flavor your slow-cooker Chex party mix with a mixture of Worcestershire sauce, melted butter, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and onion powder.
