This was delicious and I usually don't like ranch dressing. I like my chex mix crispy so instead of microwaving, I baked it on a large cookie sheet at 300 degrees for 20 min. stirring occasionally.

I can't get enough of this mix, (however, once I accidentally used the ranch DIP seasoning, instead of the ranch DRESSING seasoning, it was awful. A mistake to never make again.) Even my husband who hates ranch liked this.
