This is wonderful fast-to-fix munchie. The recipe makes a generous 24 cups and doesn't involve any cooking. It's a cinch to package in individual snack bags, keeps its crunch and is a savory alternative to the cakes and pies usually offered at bake sales. -Linda Murphy Pulaski, Wisconsin

The recipe I have uses popcorn oil and you bake it for 40 min at 250 degrees, stirring every ten minutes. I pour it out on paper towels to absorb some of the oil after it bakes.

I've made a similar recipe. The only difference was I added mixed nuts and m & m's. Big hit!!

This was very good. I did use 2 pkgs. of ranch dressing mix to get the flavor we wanted. Will make again.

This was really quick and easy but way too salty for my family.

I really wanted to bake this, but there just isn't any need. I added about 1/2 teaspoon extra ranch and it came out perfect!
