There are a couple of things I believe in firmly. One is that peanuts taste great no matter what you put on them. The other is that everything tastes better with Parmesan cheese on it. Therefore, this recipe is sure to be a winner. Make sure you are cleared to eat nuts before you snack out on this tasty treat.

Cook's Notes: I buy the cheap nuts at the warehouse store and use this method to turn them into rock star snacks.
Garlic powder is just the beginning of and-on options. Try chili powder, or taco seasoning, or ranch dressing powder mix, etc...
I mix my Parmesan with the additional spices and run then through my spice (coffee) grinder to get it really fine. Note I DO NOT use this same grinder for coffee! YUCK!!
