SPICY PARTY PRETZELS

Steps:

• Combine the ranch mix and spices in a large bowl. Then add oil to that mixture. SALVAGE TIP - After the oil has been added, take the measuring cup and turn it over onto the baking sheet. This will let any residual oil in the cup fall onto the baking sheet to reduce waste.
• Add pretzels to the bowl and stir with a large rubber spatula until pretzels are completely coated.
• Spread pretzels over a baking sheet. Take rubber spatula and scrap out any oil and spices to pour over the pretzels. **Taste a pretzel before you bake them. They will be better when warm and the spices will adhere better however you will want to test the spices to see if you want anything more.
• Bake at 200 degrees for an hour and a half - stirring every 30 minutes. If you are baking a double batch, make sure to rotate pans after the second 30 minute stir.
