Confession:
I have a popcorn problem. If you offer me popcorn as a snack, I will always accept.
Confession:
Dan makes fun of me whenever I suggest making some. “I’m shocked that you’d want popcorn,” he says.
Confession:
While I usually pop some in just a little canola oil and sprinkle with a bit of salt or Garlic Gold, sometimes I want something more adventurous.
Truth:
Grated cheese does not stick well to popcorn unless you add lots of butter. Which kind of defeats the “healthy snack” aspect.
Truth:
Making your own popcorn seasoning is SO fun. And cheap.
Confession:
Friends and family, many of you may be getting popcorn seasoning, packaged with some kernels, as birthday, holiday or host(ess) gifts.
Because seriously, savory healthy snacks don’t get much more delicious than this.

This looks delish! My hubby is gonna love this seasoning, thanks for sharing.
I make a savory popcorn seasoned almost exactly the same way. I showed my husband, the popcorn lover, and he’s never turned back. So good
Do I sense a Savvy Popcorn Seasoning in a cute jar on store shelves in our future?
Sounds like it makes for a great snack!
If not on store shelves, then definitely in mailboxes
Awesome, I’ll take that.
Do you have any good tips for making cinnamon sugar popcorn? Any other popcorn flavors?
I definitely have more popcorn flavorings on the way!
That looks awesome, I love popcorn too! I always use a small spray of pam butter to make parmesan stick to my popcorn
but this still looks healthier!
Thanks, Laurel!
Popcorn is one of my favorite snacks! This mix of spices must make it 1000 times better

I have the same Popcorn problem – and I’m proud to admit it! Kettlecorn is my favorite but I’ve been craving savory popcorn lately.
Ohhh! I am so glad that someone else likes spices on their popcorn! When ever I put something besides salt on the popcorn my family looks at me like I am nuts!
My current favorite is Garlic salt and Cumin! Sooo tasty!
Thanks for sharing!
Yum! I think I have a popcorn problem too and that looks awesome!
Just found your blog and this recipe. What a great spice combo idea! I’ve recently been making a lot of sweet popcorn toppings, now I want to try this savory one!
YUM What sweet toppings have you been using?
