A Valentine Treat, Not So Sweet: Microwave Popcorn!
Kids Kitchen and my kids gave microwavable popcorn bags to all of our Valentines this year.
Popcorn is a whole-grain: it’s healthy for your heart! What makes popcorn a high calorie and fat food, is all the butter and salt! When we get popcorn from the movie theatre, at carnivals, or from some microwave popcorn brands – we get a lot of extra calories and fat from a huge amount of butter that is added. Make your own – its fast, fun, easy, and you control what goes on top!
Directions:
Line bottom of paper bag with popcorn kernels, in single layer.
Fold over the top of the bag 2 times. Remove staple if you choose to staple them shut for gifting.
Place in microwave for 2-3 minutes until most of the popping has stopped.
Serve with your choice of flavorings.
Try:
Garlic powder and salt. Cinnamon and sugar. Pumpkin Spice powder and salt or sugar. Spray with an oil mister or melted butter if you wish and sprinkle with salt.
