Nuts n’ bolts

A traditional Stringer family Christmas staple. Pretty sure this originally came from the back of a Nutrigrain packet in the 80s sometime. On paper it looks revolting, I get it, but it is genuinely, surprisingly delicious - a very pleasing mix of sweet and salty and crunchy and it takes literally minutes to make.

I frequently make at least a double batch and put it into glass jars for Christmas presents. Also excellent for general Christmas snacks. It rarely fails to please.

Ingredients

  • 350 gms Nutri Grain
  • 375 gms Salted Mixed Nuts
  • 1 packet Cream of Chicken soup mix
  • 1 packet French Onion Soup Mix
  • 2 tsp Curry Powder
  • 1 tsp Mustard Powder
  • 1/2 cup warm vegetable oil

Method

  1. Add all dry ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Stir/mix well so all ingredients are mixed.
  2. Add warm vegetable oil and mix through well.
  3. Store in an airtight container.
