Herb & Feta Popcorn

Popcorn just got a fresh farmers market upgrade! This Herb & Feta Popcorn is a super fun snack that kids can make at home while trying new flavors. Start with a big bowl of warm, freshly popped popcorn, then add feta, basil, and seasoning for a POP of flavor.

  • Knife
  • Stovetop

  • 1 tbsp fresh basil
  • 1 tbsp Mama’s Seasoning
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
