Ingredients

50 each garlic cloves, (about 4 heads)
2 teaspoons salt
4 cups cheese cheddar, shredded (about 1 lb)
5 quarts popcorn, popped (about 1/2 cup unpopped)

Directions

Peel garlic and mince with salt to prevent sticking and to absorb garlic juices. Toss garlic with cheese. In large glass or plastic bowl, make alternate layers of popped corn and garlic-cheese mixture, coating popcorn as evenly as possible, especially at edge of bowl.

Place in microwave oven and cook 1 minute. Shake bowl gently; turn 180 degrees and cook 1 more minute. Do not overcook. Immediately turn out onto cookie sheet, and quickly shape into plum-size balls. Set balls on sheets of waxed paper.

Makes 4 dozen popcorn balls.

100% Parmesan Chicken

This was a great recipe! I only changed a couple things.. I used a Parmesan/Asiago/Romano cheese blend instead of just Parmesan. Also, instead of non-stick cooking spray for baking, I used a high-quality olive oil (the one I used from Olivier & Co. had notes of black pepper and artichoke, called Valdesano). For a red sauce, I used "Spicy Tomato Sauce" from epicurious.com (with twice the red wine) and served it all over spinach fettucini. WOW.
