Texas Trash Snack Mix

This is a very easy mix to throw together and is good to bring to parties, or to keep at home for your own snacking pleasure :)  I made quite a few batches of this last Christmas, but today I'm making it for my fiance's birthday! The boy prefers salty snacks over sweets, so I decided to whip up this Texas Trash Snack Mix using some of his favorite salty snacks. You can basically throw any type of small plain or salty snack into this mix and it'll turn out great (bugles, goldfish, pretzels, nuts, cereal, etc.). The tabasco sauce and cayenne pepper give it a nice kick, which makes it more flavorful and delicious than your average "trash mix". I found the recipe last year at food.com. Hope you enjoy!
