For starters - grab a pan - and turn on your stove.
Get some butter. For me - you can never have too much. I hate when people don't give me an exact amount. I am going to guess.....2-3 TBS.
Then let the butter melt.
Then the Garlic Powder or Garlic Salt....This is all I had on hand...I need to go shopping! I used a few shakes of it - I would guess about 1-2 tsp.
Dump your cheerio's in the hot butter. How much...what ever looks good - I'd say about 1-2 cups. Maybe more.
Stir them around.
Make sure they are toasted - you'll see them start to get a little darker - covered in butter - and smelling super garlicky!! MMmmmm
You can see it start to brown a little.
Seriously good stuff here!
Then dish them up - and you are good to go!

ReplyDeleteActually, this is very clever... may have to really give this a whirl, it's certainly easy enough! And from a non cook, that's a good thing. :)
