Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rice cereal squares, corn cereal squares, wheat cereal squares, mini pretzels, and mixed nuts.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, stir in Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the butter mixture evenly over the dry ingredients in the bowl. Gently toss to coat all of the ingredients with the seasoning mixture.
Spread the mixture out in an even layer on a large baking sheet or two smaller ones, ensuring there is enough space for even toasting.
Bake the cereal mix in the preheated oven for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even toasting and flavor distribution.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the mix cool completely on the pan, which will allow it to crisp up further.
Once cooled, transfer the toasted cereal party mix to an airtight container or serve immediately. Enjoy!
