Easy Sweet and Salty Party Mix

Disclosure: I was provided with samples of G.H. Cretors products, in exchange for a post. G.H. Cretors is also supplying the prize for the giveaway. All opinions are 100% my own.

When I was a kid, I had an adorable wooden, handmade Easter basket. I fondly think about it every year around this time, and it brings back lovely memories of Easter Day. The Easter Bunny 😉 was so creative and thoughtful with our baskets…they would contain our favorite candies, as well as a couple of fun trinkets/toys. They were beautifully wrapped in colorful cellophane, complete with the perfect bow. So much attention to detail…I can only hope my kids one day get that level of creativity in their baskets. 🙂

For Easter, I like to make a little bag of treats for coworkers and my siblings. This year has been a bit busy, so I didn’t really have time to make a bunch of treats. However, I was sent samples of G.H. Cretors Chicago Mix, and I thought…why not make a simple party/snack mix to give out? The folks at G.H. Cretors are pretty awesome to combine classic cheese and caramel popcorn together..it’s the perfect mix of sweet and salty! I just used the Chicago mix straight out of the bag, and then to make it festive, I added in some Easter M&Ms. To make them look like a nice little gift, I packaged them up in simple, clear cello bags, tied with bright curling ribbon. It took minutes to make this party mix, and the gifts were a hit!
