It’s no secret we consume a lot of popcorn in my house. I’ve made my husband cut back to twice a week for a bit just because it was getting out of hand and summer is coming. Yes, it’s a healthier snack but not when you eat giant movie sized buckets almost every night.

Since it’s spring, and the fresh scent of lemon always makes me happy, I wanted to share this simple way to add some pizazz to your popcorn. Just a sprinkle of salt and pepper (I usually omit the pepper), a little lemon zest, and some Parmesan cheese and you’ve got a healthy, gourmet snack. I love adding the cheese because you get the salty taste without adding a lot of extra salt.
