We have some huge popcorn fans in our family. We eat it almost every night!
Brown bag popcorn is a fun, healthy way to enjoy this snack. Simply place 1/4 c. popcorn kernels into a brown lunch sack, fold down a couple of times to close, and microwave on high for 2 minutes**.
Pour into a bowl and spray with butter flavored spray (Pam works well) and sprinkle with salt or seasonings.
That's it! Cheaper and much less greasy than the store bought stuff!
**Obviously all microwaves cook differently. Ours cooks a perfect bag in 2 minutes. Experiment to see what works best for you.
What a great idea! I LOVE me some popcorn! Its a daily snack in our house too!

I love it...we forget sometimes how to do the most basic of things..thanks..
ReplyDeleteyay!! cant wait to try this. just bought 2 bags of kernals last week for this exact reason!!
ReplyDeleteThose are really cute popcorn containers!
ReplyDeleteThis is great! I just read something recently about how bad microwave popcorn is and was looking for an alternative that didn't involve me cleaning a pan. Yeah! Thanks so much.
ReplyDeleteThis works in a pinch and was really handy when our library was showing a movie: each kiddo has their own bag of fresh popcorn. NO Fighting. And no icky chemically, greasy mess;0)

I had completely forgotten about doing this! I've made this before, but not for a long time! I did it with my kids this evening and they thought it was the coolest thing EVER!
ReplyDelete:) Thanks for the reminder!
I had no idea you could do this. Thanks for posting!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I love reading your blog..it really inspires me to want to be crafty :)
Thank you for posting this. We always do the pot on the stove method. I would rather do this one since it requires no oil! We'll be making some of this later on today :-)
ReplyDeleteThis sounds fun! I don't like the artificial taste of store bought microwave popcorn. I look forward to trying this!
ReplyDeleteWhat a popping good idea! BTW, I have the same popcorn containers! Love them!

I loved seeing this especially after my kids came in and asked for popcorn. Always with the white cheddar too. I sometimes make them "Popcorn Salad" popcorn with a treat mixed in... like cherry twizzler nibs... I will have to try this, thanks for sharing. winks-jen
