HOW TO MICROWAVE POPCORN IN A PAPER BAG

I’m definitely someone who prefers salty over sweet.  But I often have a hard time finding something healthy AND satisfying when a craving for something savory hits.

And while I’ve heard of popping popcorn in a paper bag before, I’ve just never taken the time to try it.  Well now I’m mad that I didn’t try this awesome air-popped method before because it really is so so so easy!  Let me demonstrate in super speed:

DIRECTIONS for POPPING your DIY MICROWAVEABLE POPCORN BAG:

  1. Remove the paper popcorn bag from the packaging and unfold it to standup straight.
  2. Make a fold at the top of the bag & continue folding down 2 more times.  (3 folds total)
  3. Microwave the folded popcorn bag on HIGH for 3-4 minutes, stopping the microwave when the kernel popping slows to ~2 seconds.
  4. Enjoy your air-popped popcorn plain OR spritz a bit of olive oil spray & sprinkle with seasonings for a more flavorful experience.

Not only do I love how easy it is to make this snack, popcorn is a WHOLE GRAIN with tons of Vitamin A (which is helps preserve your vision, skin, and bones).

Who’s ready to get it poppin’?!?
