My mom is a lover of all things ranch. I made this for her to munch on during the holidays. She loved it. It tasted great and it was excellent on top of bowls of chili.
I’m so happy your mom enjoyed munching on these Kimberly! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review!💗
These sound great! FYI…I have been making a spicy version of seasoned oyster crackers for years but I don’t even put them in the oven. After adding the crackers to the vegetable oil/spices, just move them around, flip bag over every hour so for the first few hours. Just leave them in the bag over night. Next day they are completely dry of oil. Last for weeks. I can’t wait to try this version as well 😋
Thanks for sharing! My husband would love the spicy version, sounds yummy!💗
This recipe is so easy yet soooo delicious. My family ate them all in one night! I have a feeling I will be making this often. But it is especially good to put out near the holidays. I would much rather the kids snack on these rather than chocolate and sugar all day Thank you so much for giving the link for the Ranch seasoning in bulk. I also used olive oil as a suggested alternative to vegetable oil in your notes. My husband and kids snacked on them till they were gone! Next time I’m going to hide some away for me (wink). Great recipe. Thanks again!
I am so happy that you loved this recipe Nola!! I really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. Have a great day!!
