    Chex™ Party Mix isn’t just for the holidays! But you probably already knew that, didn't you? We see Chex™ Mix recipes all over the internet throughout the year because they are so easy to make and everyone loves them. But have you ever thought of making a Chex™ Mix recipe for the kids for a fun after school snack? I grabbed a few handy ingredients at Publix® and recreated this Honey Peanut School Fuel Chex™ Mix recipe before Angeline and I headed out to Seattle so that we would have a snack to take with us on our flight! It was a great way to try out the recipe and see if it was going to become part of our school routine.

    Honey Peanut School Fuel Chex Mix Recipe

    Chex™ has a ton of recipes that are perfect for whipping up a quick snack for the kids after school. And guess what? They only take 15 minutes to make - or less! You can make these ahead of time while you're tidying up after dinner or after school while they kids are getting their homework sorted.

    Do you struggle with ideas of what to put in the children's lunchboxes during school? Chex™ Mix is an easy way to give your kids a homemade goody in their lunchbox during the busy back to school season, and you KNOW that the kids will eat them up!

    Since Chex™ cereals are Buy One, Get One Free this week at Publix, the recipes are also a great value because you can make more for less! You don't even need a coupon, this is a regular sale that everyone can take advantage of and is valid August 28th through September 3rd!

    This Honey Peanut School Fuel Chex Mix Recipe tastes great and are healthy too, containing new Cheerios Protein cereal and peanuts!

    Now, we went ahead and made this recipe before school started to try it out, so Angeline has had it not only as part of her school lunch but as fun travel snacks too! Just throw some in a Ziploc bag or reusable plastic container and you're good to go!

    There's also an equally easy recipe for Chex Apple Almond Bars too!

    You can watch the Apple Almond Bars video here and the Honey Peanut School Fuel video on YouTube to see how easy they are to make!

    Spread on waxed paper or foil to cool. Place in serving bowl; stir in candies. (I disregarded this part of the recipe and just stirred it all together in the large bowl. It's just easier that way!

    Store in airtight container.

    A few tips from the Chex™ website... 

    Method Note: Spray inside of measuring cup with cooking spray before measuring honey so the honey will slide right out after measuring.
    Family/Kids: This snack is perfect for lunch boxes when packaged in small resealable food-storage plastic bags.
