Savory Herbs de Provence Popcorn

Hey everyone! Ever think about adding fresh garlic to popcorn? How about the lavender buds in Herbs de Provence... No? Well, I'm here to tell ya, you might just want to think about it:@) This grown-up popcorn is full of big flavors and a wonderful treat, some even say it's great with a glass of wine.
I started with a recipe from Jolly Time and did cut back quite a bit, my measurements are in italics. 
I'm sure it's immensely flavorful as written. This is a fun popcorn folks!

Savory Herbs de Provence Popcorn
8 C popped corn-a little over 4 cups air popped
1/4 C butter-a heaping Tblsp
2 cloves garlic minced-I grated 1/2 of a clove with the microplane
2 Tblsp Herbs de Provence-1 tsp (2 Tblsp is a lot folks)
I added a big pinch of kosher salt
  • Melt butter in small pan, stir in garlic and cook 1 minute (I added the butter and garlic to a ramekin and used the microwave for a few seconds until melted). Stir in spices and pour over popcorn. Serve immediately.

Ooh la la, you melt the butter, I'll get the cork screw!

Have a happy day:@)
