Rated 5 out of 5 by from Definite crowd pleaser My family loves these (and so does everyone else)! Every time I make these, they don't last very long unless I hide them! I seriously haven't found anyone who doesn't like them!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from ALWAYS A SURE HIT....SO EASY I've been making the original version for years, but changed it up by using the Fiesta Ranch the last couple years....we all love, love, love this snack. I do make a couple changes. I can only find 9 oz. bags of oyster crackers in my area, so I use two (2), 1/2 c canola oil, heaping tsp dill weed, lemon pepper and I don't bake. I just place in a large bowl, cover and toss a few times during the day until dry. Longer it gets to sit the tastier.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super yummy!!! These are some of the tastiest snack crackers that you will come across. They are best if you can let them sit for a couple of hours after they are done cooking, or even the next day. That rarely happens in our house though. They are almost immediately devoured!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Better with Pretzels! We make "Evil Pretzels" all the time. They are evil because once you start eating them you can't stop. We use Butter flavored Popcorn Oil to coat them and cover them with the A Tbsp each of Dill, Garlic Powder, and a HVR Salad Mix Packet. They go over so well that we have to give out the recipe at least 3 times every time we make them.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for a quick snack. I make these for movie night. I left the dill out because my kids prefer it that way. These little crackers go so quick when I make them, everyone loves them.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Unique recipe with an ok twist.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from An easier way!!! I love this recipe although i have never done it the way they put it on here! I learned this recipe about five or six years ago from my mom. You'll need @ packages of oyster crackers, 1 1/4 cup vegetable oil and two packages of hidden valley ranch seasoning mix. Pour all ingredients in a large bowl or ziplock bag, cover and toss them until evenly coated. Let mixture sit for a few hours, (i let mine sit overnight) , until the mixture is dry then you are ready to enjoy!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Yummy This is a fast, easy and tasty recipe. I used less oil and it turned out great. Perfect instead of popcorn or chips while watching tv.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easiest addictive snack! Any version, with or without the dill, garlic and/or lemon pepper is so good! I've even tried it with cayenne pepper and another time with dry mustard (not too much). It's always good and always the first thing gone no matter how much I make!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I'll make & eat these weekly So delicious. I mixed olive oil and a bit of melted ghee with Spicy Ranch in the shaker bottle. Baked and when I tasted a few I knew I will eat these all the time. I only had a few left to use with the Gumbo I made them for.
