Trash Bag Snack Mix...Guest Blogger post numero quatro

---This stuff is killer...it's fun to shop for all the crackers that go in the mix. For some reason, the hardest thing to find is popcorn oil! Doesn't anyone make their own popcorn anymore? It's great for card parties, or football parties, or whatever event you're having where it's appropriate to constantly dip your hand into a community bowl of food.

ONE OF THE OTHER THINGS I'M MAKING FOR THE COUSIN'S REUNION THIS WEEKEND, AND THAT I LOVE TO FIX BUT ONLY DO IT IF IT'S FOR A CROWD, IS TRASH BAG SNACK MIX.

TRASH BAG SNACK MIX

GET ROUGHLY SEVEN BOXES OR BAGS OF YOUR FAVORITE CRACKERS. I USUALLY USE THE WHITE CHEDDAR CHEEZITS, OYSTER CRACKERS, RITZ CHIPS, SUN CHIPS, THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHERS THAT ARE LIKE STICKS, CAN'T THINK OF THE NAMES OF THOSE BUT YOU'LL KNOW WHAT I MEAN. I'VE HAD IT WITH PRETZELS BUT I PREFER IT WITHOUT.

TAKE TWO TRASHBAGS, KITCHEN SIZE, AND DOUBLE BAG ONE INTO THE OTHER AND POUR ALL OF THE CRACKERS INTO THE BAG. TAKE ABOUT A CUP AND A HALF OF ORVILLE REDENBACHER'S BUTTER FLAVORED POPCORN OIL, MIX INTO THE OIL 1 TBSP. OF GARLIC SALT AND 1 TBSP. OF ONION POWDER. WHEN YOU'VE GOT THAT GOOD AND STIRRED UP POUR IT INTO THE BAG AND SHAKE.

OVER ABOUT A THREE HOUR PERIOD SHAKE, TOSS, AND TURN THE BAG ABOUT EVERY HALF HOUR. I SCOOP THEM OUT INTO GALLON ZIP LOCK BAGS, USUALLY RIGHT AT THREE GALLONS. SCRUMPDILLYICIOUS!!!!!
