Ingredients
- 3 cups pretzel sticks
- 2 cups cheese crackers
- 2 cups corn chips
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pretzel sticks, cheese crackers, and corn chips. Toss to distribute evenly.
Step 3
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter (about 20-30 seconds). Stir in the taco seasoning, lime juice, garlic powder, and onion powder until well combined.
Step 4
Drizzle the butter mixture over the snack mix, gently stirring to ensure all pieces are coated evenly.
Step 5
Transfer the coated snack mix to the prepared baking sheet, spreading it out in an even layer.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through to prevent sticking and to ensure even toasting.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and let the snack mix cool completely on the baking sheet. The mix will crisp up further as it cools.
Step 8
Once cooled, transfer the Taco Pickup Sticks Snack Mix to an airtight container for storage or serve immediately.
