Instructions

Spray a large roasting pan with non-stick cooking spray.
Heat oven to 250 F/121 degrees C.
Melt butter in a large microwave-safe bowl for 30 seconds to 1 minute or until melted. Or you can melt better in a small saucepan on the stove top.
Whisk 3 tablespoon dry ranch dressing and Worcestershire sauce into melted butter.
Mix Cheerios, Life cereal, Chex cereal, pretzels, Bugles, pistachios, cheese nips, cheese bits and red tortilla chips together.
Pour butter mixture over the cereal mixture, stir well, coating evenly. Then add garlic powder, onion powder, dill, lemon pepper and remaining 3 teaspoon of dry ranch dressing and mix well.
Bake for 1 ½ hours. Stir every ½ hour. Sprinkle on some additional dill to garnish, if desired.
