Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups rice or corn chex cereal
  • 2 cups cheerios
  • 1 cup mini pretzel twists
  • ½ cup salted roasted cashews

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons easter sprinkles
  • ½ cup toasted sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 cup pastel m&ms
  • ½ cup mini eggs

Instructions

  2. In a large bowl, gently toss together the Chex, Cheerios, pretzels, and cashews until combined.
