Cinnamon Trail Mix*

2 cups toasted oat cereal
2 cups hexagon shaped corn cereal
2 cups pretzel bits
3/4 cup raisins
1/2 cup shelled sunflower seeds
2 Tbs. reduced fat margarine
2 Tbs. brown sugar
1 Tsp. cinnamon

In a large bowl, combine the cereals, pretzel bits, raisins, sunflower seeds. Toss gently. Melt margarine in a microwave oven or saucepan, and stir in the brown sugar and cinnamon. Pour over the cereal mixture. Toss gently to coat. For added crispness, bake for about 8 - 10 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Store in an airtight container until ready to use.
