Wasabi Cashew Trail Mix

Ingredients

2 cups round oat cereal 500 mL
2 cups wheat cereal squares 500 mL
1 cup cashew pieces 250 mL
1 cup unsalted peanuts 250 mL
1/4 cup butter, melted 50 mL
2 tbsp wasabi paste 25 mL
4 tsp soy sauce 20 mL
1 tbsp white sugar 15 mL
1 cup wasabi peas 250 mL


Preparation

- In large shallow roasting pan, combine oat cereal, wheat squares, cashews and peanuts.
- Whisk together butter, wasabi paste, soy sauce and sugar, drizzle over cereal mixture, stirring to coat.
- Roast in 300°F (150°C) oven, stirring twice, for 20 minutes or until lightly toasted. Let cool, stirring occasionally. Toss with wasabi peas. Makes about 7 cups (1.75 L).

Wally’s Note – I put the mix into a roaster. Set timer for 7 minutes then stir. Often it takes 28 minutes.

Tip: For milder heat, reduce the wasabi paste to taste – I have not done this to date.

This sounds yummy! When we were in Disneyland, the lounge in the hotel where we stayed had a mixture that had wasabi peas in it... it had a good kick but it was nice cause it was something different!

Wasabi scares me a little, but the rest of it sounds delish!
