Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

    *To quickly toast sesame seed, cook in small nonstick skillet over medium heat 1 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until light golden brown.
  • tip 2
    To ease the load of last-minute preparation, make this snack mix up to 1 week ahead and store in airtight container.
  • tip 3
    Serve the snack mix in a purchased wine or potpourri bag.
