wonderful! I made these for a treat on a road trip...what a treat! I used sourdough nuggets...so there wasn't any breaking too do. I also cut down on the oil by a 1/4 cup....only suggestion...is next time I'll make double the recipe!! Thank you Chef Shadows.

Addictive is exactly right! I loved these! I used a bag of tiny pretzel twists instead of the larger ones. I also doubled the amount of cayenne. I measured out the oil, but everything was well coated with less than half of the amount. The flavor is terrific and very well seasoned. I loved the addition of the dill. I stored them in a plastic container after cooling and they have held well. This recipe would be great for care packages or gifts bags. Thank you for sharing a recipe I will uses again & again.

In response to Linda's Post. Linda, I 100% agreed with you the first time I made this. However, I would like to see you try it again and do the following. Do not use garlic salt, use garlic powder and do the same for the onion salt, use powder. I also do not put in the kosher salt or the cayenne peper. However, I do double everything, using powder of course, except the oil and ranch mix. One last change, right before you place them in the oven, sprinkle some parm cheese on them. I am willing to bet you will change you mind. Hope this helps!!

I took these to a potluck and they were devoured!! I reduced the oil to 1/2 cup and also added the cayenne and kosher salt. Great snack!

Oh my! This are so addicting! I made them for my Christmas party and I had to fight off DH before the party ~ he wouldn't stop eating them. They were a big hit at the party. I made as posted with the cayenne and kosher salt added. Thank you for posting a very easy recipe that is so delicious!

I made these for our neighborhood New Year's party and they were a hit. I added the cayenne and kosher salt also. Quick, easy and every time I went to step 4 I had to try them again! They are quite addicting! Thanks for posting this.

Fabulous and very popular! Switch to garlic powder and onion powder to cut back on the salt. It's very tangy.
