1/2 tsp Watkins cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp Watkins paprika
1/4 teaspoon Watkins garlic granules
1 tsp Watkins seasoning salt

Directions: in a large, heavy saucepan heat the oil, add the popcorn, cover and cook while shaking the pan until the corn stops popping. Place the popcorn in a large serving bowl.

Meanwhile, melt the butter in the saucepan, stir in cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic and seasoning salt and pour over popcorn. Mix well and enjoy!

Tips from the kitchen:

• Make this an even healthier snack, reduce the fat, calories and cholesterol by substituting 2 tablespoons of grapeseed oil for the butter called for.

• Craving plain buttered popcorn but want a low fat snack? Simply use Watkins butter flavored salt instead of butter and salt.

Don’t like it hot? Substitute one or a combination of these herbs and spices for another tasty snack, try parsley, dill, onion granules, minced green onion or curry powder.
