Do you love Muddy Buddies (aka Puppy Chow)? It is a childhood favorite for us and making it in the crock pot is a fantastic way to do it! So I couldn’t wait to share with you this recipe for Crock Pot Muddy Buddies!

Aunt Lou here.

Do you have a recipe that instantly takes you back to a specific childhood memory? That is this Crock Pot Muddy Buddies recipe for me. Except, when I was kid, we called it Puppy Chow…and believe me, we weren’t giving any of this to any dog or puppy. We used a paper grocery bag to coat the cereal back then, and I can remember being so excited for my turn to shake the bag.

This was the first time I had made it with Ryder and Iyla. Seeing the pure joy on their faces as they shook it up was awesome. I have a feeling this will be a memory they will cherish for a long time as well!
