Popcorn

I am addicted to this recipe for popcorn. It is so yummy I can eat an entire batch by myself.

Our air popper died, but I have since been popping my popcorn in a brown paper bag in the microwave. It's fast and requires no butter or oil, except what you put on after it's popped.

Homemade Microwave Popcorn
1/4 cup popcorn
1 brown paper lunch sack

Put popcorn in sack and fold down the top of the bag several times. It's okay if it doesn't stay completely shut. Pop in the microwave using the popcorn setting or for a couple of minutes, listening for the popping to slow down.

Season to taste.

Really? You can make popcorn like that?? I had no idea. We love our air popper, thought it's nice to know there's a back up in case ours dies, too :)

I love using a paper bag. It's easy, quick, and comes out in individual bags for the kids with no mess.

And I made that recipe with ground chipotle pepper instead of cayenne pepper recently. Yum.
