I am a huge lover of party mix recipes but I must admit, I can roll my eyes when folks make their own watered down, healthy version of the recipe. Come on… the fun of having something salty and crunchy is that you just grab a handful, take a sip of your soda or spirit, and enjoy the party!

My friend’s mother shared a similar recipe to this one with me about 15 years ago. I used her recipe for years, but eventually I wanted to find a less ‘hands-on’ version to make life simpler. This Slow Cooked Party Mix is easy to make thanks to the magic of the Crock Pot, and you don’t have to babysit your oven at all!

Whether you’re hosting game night, movie night, or a Superbowl Watch Party, this Slow Cooker Party Mix is the PERFECT thing to snack on! With just 10 simple pantry ingredients, and 10 minutes of preparation, you can sit back and enjoy this crunchy, salty treat in no time!

Ingredients Needed To Make Slow Cooker Party Mix

  • Unsalted butter
  • Worcestershire sauce
  • Garlic salt
  • Onion salt
  • Celery salt
  • Cheerios
  • Rice cereal
  • Wheat cereal
  • Pretzels
  • Mixed nuts

Scroll down for the ingredient measurements and full instructions.

How To Make This Slow Cooker Party Mix

  • Melt butter in medium sauce pan.  Add Worcestershire sauce along with celery, garlic and onion salt.
  • Add all cereals, nuts and pretzels to slow cooker and gently mix.
  • Pour butter mixture over dry ingredients and gently mix until coated.
  • Put lid on slow cooker.  Set for 2 hours on low.
  • Remove lid and stir mix.
  • Cook UNCOVERED for an additional 45 minutes, stirring every 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Remove from cooker and let cool.
