Cook's Tips: Corn or rice cereal squares can be used in this recipe, but we prefer cereal with corn on one side and rice on the other. You can substitute 2 cups corn chips for pretzels, if you like.

For easy entertaining, make this snack mix the day before your get-together and store it in an airtight container at room temperature.
