Super EASY Buckeye Chex Mix – Football Themed Recipe

Super EASY Buckeye Chex Mix – Football Themed Recipe

You guys should know that my dear ‘ole husband is a BIG Buckeye fan. Just imagine him screaming “Go Bucks!” right now.

He’s got the head-to-toe fan gear, the chants and all that fun stuff down. We have even worked our weekend schedules out, just so he can watch the games on Saturday. I’m sure many of you can relate…right?

As for me? I’m just a girl who could honestly care less about any football game. {gasp! please don’t stone me for that! } But I do love the fact that there is an excuse to pig out on game day food {who doesn’t love that???} Hence how this Buckeye Chex Mix recipe came to life.

Since most of the time my husband watches his beloved game all by himself – I wanted to make him a yummy snack to munch on during his “man time.” This recipe has a lot of chocolate, peanut butter and some crunch to it, making it an overall yummy sweet treat. Plus it’s super easy for anyone to pull together for a last minute gathering and of course, it has the red & white theme going on.

So what are you waiting for? Grab the simple ingredients and make it today. My son even got to help in the making. It’s all worth it, even if you don’t like the Buckeyes ;)
