COOKING WITH CANNABIS |
TREAT YOURSELF
This snack mix is a staple at Nancy’s house. It’s a great everyday snack, yet looks elegant served in a fancy dish. Stored it in an airtight container, it should last two weeks -- ALTHOUGH IT’S USUALLY EATEN THE FIRST DAY!
The beauty of this recipe is that it is a base recipe in that by changing ingredients and spices you can change it from a sweet to a savory treat.
This can be changed to incorporate the flavors you are craving -- change the cinnamon to garlic powder and use corn syrup instead of maple syrup, and you have a sweet garlic chili nut mix.
THE COMBINATIONS ARE ENDLESS.
Change pretzel sticks to cereal mix ( i.e. Chex Mix) and mixed raw nuts to raw peanuts, add in some melted peanut butter to the corn syrup to make a glaze: you have a peanut cereal mix.
MEDICATING THE MIX
Do the math on how much cannabis to add to your recipe Check your formula for determining potency of your finished product. Example: 12 servings x 5mg = 60 mg THC or CBD per recipe The recipe yield is 12 servings of approximately ½ cup each
