We here at Sharp are popcorn-obsessed and we find that every now and then we want to switch up our popcorn game. The good news? There are tons of creative ways to use popcorn as a base for some of our other favorite snack foods. Next time you’re bored with your typical dessert or need a new go-to breakfast favorite, try one of these popcorn remixes. The best thing about all of these recipes? The popcorn can be popped with absolute ease using Sharp’s Orville Redenbacher’s Certified Carousel Microwave. Below are just a few of our favorite ways to mix up the everyday bag of popcorn.
Granola is the ultimate easy go-to for breakfast when we’re rushing out the door. It makes for the perfect topper for yogurt or is great to snack on throughout the day at our desks. Combining popcorn with some granola must-haves like nuts, seeds, coconut, brown sugar and maple syrup make this recipe a savory and sweet protein packed breakfast that keeps us satisfied all day long! Our friends at Food 52 put together this video showing how they use Sharp’s Orville Redenbacher Certified Carousel Microwave to make this breakfast must-have.

Popcorn and ice-cream may sound like a bit of a strange combination, but these salty and sweet popcicles are made even better with the addition of some crunchy kernels as a garnish. This snack is perfect for those warm summer evenings to come, so make a big batch to freeze ahead of time. That way next time a heat wave comes, pull one out of the freezer, top with popcorn and enjoy!
