*This post is brought to you by Pop Secret, my favorite light and fluffy popcorn that brings families together*
One of my family’s favorite snacks is popcorn; I swear my girls could eat it almost every day. We normally pop our corn when we need a quick and light snack, during play time, study time or during family movie time. Sometimes I like to jazz up the popcorn to get my family excited and to make their taste buds and tummy happy. The other night my girls had a friend over and wanted to order pizza and since this mom is cheap, I decided to make them the next best thing, Pepperoni Pizza Popcorn featuring Pop Secret.
Pepperoni Pizza Popcorn is so easy to make and the great thing about it is that you can change up the pizza flavor for each family member. For my girls I decided to make this popcorn extra cheesy with a lot of pepperoni. They absolutely loved it.
- 1 bag of Pop Secret popcorn
- 10 or more pepperoni cut up
- 2 tablespoons of oil
- 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese
- 2 shakes of Parmesan Cheese
- 1/2 tablespoon of garlic salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 cayenne pepper (optional)
- 1 gallon bag
- Cook cut up pepperoni in hot oil
- Drain and soak up grease with paper towel
- Pop a bag of Pop Secret popcorn
- Pour Pop Secret popcorn into gallon bag
- Add cooked pepperoni
- Add remaining ingredients into bag
- Secure bag and shake
- Once ingredients are mixed, enjoy!
As I said above, my girls love to snack on popcorn almost every day, so on Martin Luther King Day we decided to do our studies but make them a little bit more fun. I let them help me build a fort! Who doesn’t love to learn their lessons in a fort with a big bag of hot and fluffy Pop Secret popcorn? Their fort was perfect because it was fit for two little queens and they were so much more focused on the lesson for the day. Forts always seem to make everything better.
My family loves Pop Secret popcorn because it is so fresh and fluffy. It is our go to popcorn not only for the quality but because it comes in so many amazing varieties.
What are some ways that popcorn brings your family together?

I feel like when I buy popcorn, it immediately tells my boyfriend that it’s time to rent a good movie to watch and get some cuddle time. I have never thought of making it pizza style, but that sounds delicious!

What a great combination. I would love to try that.

We have some pizza popcorn seasoning so this would be a perfect edition.

Wow, I have never heard of this combination. It sounds interesting!
Guilty! I have totally cooked up some pepperoni and added it to my popcorn. I have used the turkey kind, too. Both just as good. Only, I used the microwave for the pepperoni and an air popper for the popcorn. It’s so good!
We love PopSecret and trying new flavors for our popcorn. This sounds like something my husband and son would love.
This looks soooo good! I love trying new toppings on my popcorn 😀
Now this is an original idea. I never would have thought this up!
Pepperonis has just the right kind of spice for popcorn. Pizza popcorn sounds really good!
I’ve never thought about adding something like pepperoni to a popcorn recipe but I bet it’s yummy and delicious combination of flavors.
What a great idea! My kids would like that tent and the pizza popcorn
We are big popcorn eaters. This recipe sounds delish and it looks like something my 4 year old could with. Great idea!
We are too..same here!!
Oh!! Never thought of adding pepperoni. We usually opt for sweet add-ins rather than savory but this looks yummy.
Yum now this is creative and looks super good! I bet my kids would absolutely love this stuff!
This looks like a fun idea. We love pizza and popcorn so why not

Pepperoni! This is a great idea and easy to do. I will try this with the family.
