Cheesy Ranch Chex Mix
Viva Towels, More than Just a Paper Towel
You and your paper towels
have been around the butcher’s
block a few times. But,
before you tear off another
sheet, take a closer look at
your helpful ally.
You might just discover
that VIVA towels have a few
hidden talents to help you
get the most out of life in the
kitchen (and beyond!).
Here are some tips and
tricks you might not have
thought about from cloth —
like VIVA towels:
•Smooth as silk. Cleaning
an ear of corn is easy with a
VIVA towel that is soft yet
strong.
First husk the corn, then
wipe it down from tip to
base with a dampened VIVA
towel — and watch the silky
threads come off in a single
stroke.
•Kitchen Sunshine. Make
a statement on your countertop
with VIVA Delightful
Designs — with bright
cheerful designs to match
any kitchen décor.
•Waste not, want not. For
those smaller kitchen tasks,
use VIVA Choose-A-Size
Towels.
Then you can use just the
right amount of towel you
need to handle the job —
without any waste.
•Cushion the blow. Moving
into a new home? While
packing up your dinnerware,
cleverly place a VIVA towel
between each dish.
This will help minimize
breakage so that your dishes
arrive at their new destination
in one piece.
•Innovative Party Planner.
VIVA towel designs
are so attractive that when
entertaining, you can use
the towels as runners on
your kitchen or dining room
table instead of linens. This
lessens time in the laundry
The Original Chex® Party Mix
Start to Finish: 15 Minutes
3 cups Corn Chex® cereal
3 cups Rice Chex® cereal
3 cups Wheat Chex® cereal
1 cup mixed nuts
1 cup bite-size pretzels
1 cup garlic-fl avor bite-size bagel chips or regular-size bagel
chips, broken into 1-inch pieces
6 tablespoons butter or margarine
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1-1/2 teaspoons seasoned salt
room, so enjoy what’s really
important, time spent with
family and friends.
Soft and strong like cloth,
VIVA towels is your #1
kitchen helper — from prep
work to clean up, and some
unexpected tasks in — between.
