    Recipe Ingredients for This Festive Valentine’s Day Snack Mix

    Ingredients for a valentine snack mix in individual bowls, sitting on a white counter.

    Caramel popcorn – Caramel corn or regular popcorn both taste great inside this salty snack mix!

    Tiny twists pretzels – These mini pretzels are the perfect bite-size ingredient to add, but feel free to use small pretzel twists or small pretzel sticks instead.

    Bugles – Original Bugles are one of my favorite parts of this perfect treat!

    Lucky Charms cereal – Not only does Lucky Charms add a fun addition of sweetness to this great treat, it also adds festive color.

    Salted peanuts – Or go unsalted!

    M&M’s chocolate candies – Valentine’s day colors preferred! Check out the seasonal aisles of your local grocery store up to 2 months before the holiday for these special Valentine M&M candies.

    Cinnamon imperial hearts candies – Red hot candies can be a replacement. Again, check out that seasonal aisle found in most grocery stores. This ingredient adds a crunch you may not like in the mix, so omit if desired.
