01 / WHAT YOU NEED

Ingredients

1 (2.9 ounce) bag microwave popcorn 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese ¼ cup melted butter 1 cup savory baked cereal snack mix (such as Bits & Bites) 1 teaspoon salt

02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

Step 1

Start by popping the bag of popcorn in the microwave on high. Keep an ear out and stop it when the popping slows to about two seconds between pops—this usually takes around two and a half minutes. While the popcorn is still warm, sprinkle in some Parmesan cheese and give it a good toss so it melts a bit. Next, drizzle melted butter over the top and mix everything together. Finally, add your favorite savory snack mix and a pinch of salt, then stir again to combine all those flavors. Enjoy your tasty snack!

Cook's tip

- Use fresh popcorn kernels for the best popping results.
- Heat the oil until it’s hot but not smoking to avoid burning the popcorn.
- Shake the pot gently while popping to prevent kernels from sticking or burning.

Serving ideas

Serve warm in a large bowl so everyone can grab a handful. It pairs well with a cold drink or a light dessert. You can also sprinkle some extra seasoning on top just before serving for an added burst of flavor.

Storage & leftovers

Store leftovers in an airtight container once cooled to keep the popcorn crisp. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from moisture. For the best taste, enjoy within a few days as popcorn tends to lose its crunch over time.
