Yes it seems weird, and yes, it's actually really good. Cheerios skillet-stirred with melted butter and salt are a creative, fun and addictive alternative to popcorn. No milk needed for this bowl of cereal.

  1. Heather P REVIEW:

    I used to make this when I was a kid! Always a favorite. I took your suggestion and added a cup of peanuts. I didn't like it. It would be better to leave it out. Or, if you do use peanuts, add m&m's.

  2. Heather REVIEW:

    Yummy! Easy quick snack the kids loved! Thanks for sharing.

  3. Mom O' 2 REVIEW:

    I remember a commercial for these when I was in high school. Now twenty years later and a Mother myself, I decided to make them for my Son. They almost taste like popcorn!!
