• Pulse blender until ingredients are chopped as finely as you wish.
• By putting onion in the blender first, it will chop more finely than remaining ingredients.
• If salsa seems too thick, you can thin it by adding some of the reserved tomato juice.
• This can be eaten immediately, but tastes best if allowed to chill for 2 hours.

Cook on high in microwave for 3 or 4 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until mixture is warm, liquid, and fully combined.
• Stir seasoning sauce continuously as you pour half over the cereal mixture in each pan. Gently stir the snack mix and seasonings with a slotted spoon until thoroughly coated; do not crush cereal.
