Munchy Crunchy Good Stuff

Melanie Pope made this sweet coconut-almond chex mix for our family and brought it over for a Christmas gift when Lauren was a new baby. We had Brandon's family visiting for Christmas and everyone loved it so much that it was eaten before I had a chance to even try it. However, I heard about it from them and all my friends who had also received it as a gift. So, I got the recipe and made it myself. Delicious!
