It's a Secret! Super Chip Mix

So here we are on the first of many fun Saturday mornings to come.   I'm all fired up and ready to go with lots of neat things to share.

MJ has just finished reading the Secret series by Pseudonymous Bosch; a really fun mystery, spy, adventure, fantasy book series aimed at the 4-8th grade set.  I've read them all too and I think they're well written, definitely an interesting read.  And that's about all I can tell you, because the rest you see, is a Secret.

I will risk telling you that the heroine of the story, a girl named Cass (not her real name), is a teenage survivalist who sees impending disasters everywhere (maybe) and one of her many odd proclivities is always having easily storable dry food around that she can munch on - Super Chip Mix (although I won't swear to this) in case of an emergency. The recipe is included in the book and of course we had to make some.  Now we're hooked on it (although we did some improvising as well).  Everyone who's tried it agrees, that's tasty!


Super Chip Mix
Chocolate Chips
Peanut Butter Chips
Banana Chips
Potato Chips

We adapted ours to include also:

Sub the chololate chips for chocoloate covered pretzels
Sub the potato chips for Sweet Potato chips. (Less greasy, better flavor.)
Butterscotch chips
Sometimes nuts like almond, cashew or peanut
