Tips
- • For maximum flavor, make sure to mix the ranch seasoning with olive oil thoroughly before drizzling to ensure even coating. • Want to customize? Try adding some dried herbs or a sprinkle of extra cheese powder for an additional flavor boost. • Store in an airtight container to keep the mix crisp and fresh for up to a week. • For a spicier version, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the ranch seasoning mix. • Prepare this snack mix ahead of time for parties - it's a crowd-pleaser that gets even better as the flavors meld together. • Pro tip: Toast the nuts lightly before mixing for an extra depth of flavor and crunch.
