TRY NEW CINNAMON TOAST CRUNCH CHURROS CEREAL BY MAKING THIS ADDICTIVE CHURROS SNACK MIX

This post has been sponsored by General Mills. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

We ran out of cereal the other day, so I hopped onto Walmart’s online grocery pickup (that you know I love sooo much) to add some boxes of cereal on my order. I noticed this brand new Cinnamon Toast Crunch Churros cereal pop up in my search, and I had to try it (I mean, my kids had to try it….haha). After all, I loooove churros, especially cute little mini ones, and this cereal sounded really good!

Turns out, it is delicious as a breakfast cereal, but I instantly thought of using these little mini churros to create a delicious dessert snack mix of sorts, so I created Cinnamon Toast Crunch Churros Snack Mix.

CINNAMON TOAST CRUNCH CHURROS CEREAL IS THE KEY INGREDIENT FOR CHURROS SNACK MIX

If you’re not using Walmart’s online grocery pickup service yet, you should be. It saves so much time and money! Hop online and order a box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch Churros cereal along with all your favorite products today. When creating this snack mix, I wanted to capture that delicious crunchy, yet chewy cinnamon taste of fresh churros along with some fun complimentary flavors. I mixed mini marshmallows, mini chocolate chips, dried banana chips and dried strawberry slices with a few cups of Cinnamon Toast Crunch Churros. It was pretty to look at and delish, too!

I had crunchy, chewy, and cinnamon-y, along with the bright flavors of the dried fruit and smooth, mellow chocolate. Yummmmm.

Since I have kids, having a pantry stocked with snacks is key to keeping them happy, so I threw some Churros Snack Mix into baggies for on-the-go treats. They’ve been great for trail mix, after-school snacks, keeping kids quiet at church, and road trips.

Of course, Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal is great on its own in a bowl with milk and a spoon. So if you don’t feel like making snack mix, no worries. If you like churros, you’ll love this cereal either way.
