This is a different take on the traditional Chex recipes. I like that you use different ingredients like the pumpkin seeds, but I think I will use sunflower seeds. Since my daughter is allergic to the pecans, I will need to use peanuts, but I think it will still turn out delicious.

This looks like an awesome snack recipe, for both children and adults alike! Much more wholesome and nutritious than packaged candy, this would be a great thing to set out for the kids at a Halloween or Autumn themed party. You could put it in individual packages to send guests home with as a little gift.
