This recipe comes from a Taste of Home Healthy Coking Magazine. I haven't made it. It looks like an interesting twist on Chex Mix. It seems like you could make this as spicy as you like just by using different curry powder.

Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries that have been thawed.
- To make the curry powder, you can either use a store-bought blend or make your own. If you're making your own, use a combination of coriander, cumin, turmeric, fenugreek, and chili powder.
- If you don't have any pecans, you can substitute another type of nut, such as walnuts or almonds.
- Be careful not to overcook the cranberries. They should be cooked until they are just starting to burst.
- Store the snack mix in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
