1 tsp Onion Powder
3 cups Pretzel Sticks
1 1/2 cups Large Pecan Halves

Instructions:
- Arrange 2 racks to divide the oven into thirds and heat the oven to 250F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Place butter in a medium, microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 10 second intervals, stirring between each, until melted.
- Add Worcestershire sauce, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Whisk until well combined.
- Place pretzel sticks, pecan halves, and Cajun mix in a large bowl. Lightly toss to combine.
