Savory O’s — “O” so good snacks!



     Barry’s food experiments are usually pleasing to the palate. However, I had my doubts when he revealed this latest concoction! During a phone conversation he told me that instead of making his usual Spicy Oyster Crackers, he had used Cheerios. He seemed quite thrilled with the outcome. Actually he said, “I have a new blog addition!”
     Hmmm . . . I was wondering how I was going to get out of that one. But, I was also concerned about even tasting the stuff.  By the time I arrived home, I was determined to at least try a few. After all, I didn’t want to hurt his feelings.
     I tasted, I liked and I must admit that I now eat the stuff by the handfuls. It may sound strange but it’s really good. After all, Chex Mix is now an all time classic snack so maybe Savory O’s have a chance.

Savory O’s
Barry never really measures . . . this is as close as I can come to amounts but the recipe is variable, so adjust to your tastes as he does.

About 4 cups O’s cereal (Cheerios® or at oat O’s cereal)
1 cup vegetable (canola) oil
2 (1 oz.) pkg. Ranch-style dry dressing mix (or 6 tablespoons)
2 teaspoon dried dill weed
3 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning blend

1.  Pour O’s cereal into a large microwave-safe bowl.
2.  Combine remaining ingredients in a measuring cup; whisk to mix completely. Pour over cereal and toss until all are well coated.


3.  Microwave (high) uncovered for 3 to 4 minutes or until heated -- stopping and stirring at least twice. Cool completely.

4.  Store in a covered container.

  2. I finally had time to check out your site . . . and have some questions. If I register, then what happens -- will I set up a link so that our recipes go directly to yours once I've added them to the blog?
    Also, not all of my recipes are original . . . lots are but not all. If they are not, I do give credit to the source. So, how does that work?
    Also, could you provide information about your blog -- is it a clearing house for other blogs? How many other blogs are participating, etc. Where does your blog originate? (U.S., Europe)
