Do we have any Sriracha lovers out there? Oh I know we do…
The fact that there are such things as Sriracha keychains… then I’d say odds are, we have some that must hang around here.
The other day, General Mills surprised me with a huge bagful of goodies. At first, I thought it was just a bag full of their newest items. I was wrong. It was WAY more than that!
It was stuffed full of all of the ingredients & a recipe card that I would need to make:
Honey Sriracha Chex™ Mix
I mean, check out this massive gift they sent me. I {heart} them. I couldn’t WAIT to make it. Then of course if it was good, I couldn’t wait to share it with you. Needless to say… I’m here, and I’m sharin’ it. It’s GOOD.
It was extremely easy to throw together, and I didn’t even have to heat up the stove!
Here, I laid the heated chex mix out to cool, on wax paper before adding in the popcorn.
Once it cools, add in the popcorn and the deliciousness commences.
The recipe card says to store it in an air tight container so it will stay fresh!
I stored mine in one of my glass canisters, hoping it stays fresh in that… because… we… it’s pretty.
I did also add a little salt to the mix after it was all finished and mixed together. But that’s just because I really, really, really like salt. 🙂

Question: I’m making this for an event, that includes travel time. Will this stay fresh if made 4 days prior to “gifting”? Plan on making 3-4 batches, then putting in cellophane bags & twisting shut.

Hi Bonnie! I wish I knew for sure but I haven’t tested that out before. We usually eat it all the same day. 😂 I’m sorry! But, I would THINK it would do well as long as it’s sealed well???
