Dilly Snack Mix

This gem of a recipe for Dilly Snack Mix is fully credited to my awesome sister-in-law Kris who shared it with me about 8 years ago, when Big Sis was just starting school. She said it would be a big hit with the teachers, being one herself. So from that day on, I started making this to share with teachers, friends and family alike on holidays and other special occasions. I know it’s a hit because every time I share some, I always get requests for the recipe. So here it is, transferred from my sis’ handwritten recipe she so sweetly shared with me. Love ya, Kris!

You HAVE to try out this irresistible dilly snack mix, perfect for sharing or hoarding all to yourself. ;)

Dilly Snack Mix

By Kris B., sister-in-law extraordinaire!

Brought to you by happyvballgirl @ My Epicurean Adventures

Course Snack

Ingredients

  • ~ 32 oz of any crackers I use a 9 oz bag of oyster crackers, 12 oz of pretzels, and 12 oz of goldfish crackers
  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 2 Tbsp Dill
  • 1 1 oz package of dried ranch dressing mix about 3 Tbsp

Instructions

  1. Empty crackers into a LARGE bowl or pot
  2. In a smaller bowl, combine the oil, dill and ranch and mix well with a fork or whisk.
  3. Pour oil mixture over crackers and  stir thoroughly but gently, taking care not to crush the crackers.
  4. Continue to stir gently every 5-10 minutes for 2 hours or until the oil mix is completely absorbed into the crackers.

Recipe Notes

Enjoy!

I've made this dilly snack mix many different times and ways. In the picture below, I added chex rice cereal to the mix which add a great light crispiness. You can change the crackers up and totally make it your own!

    Using dill on snack mix is a cool idea.
