Homemade Microwave Popcorn













Yes you can do this yourself. Yes it is pennies on the dollar compared to the kind you buy. So easy too. I adapted it from this site I found on Pinterest. And what a find it was. I might add how much healthier this version is too. Love it.

1 paper brown lunch bag (a package of 50 is only about $1.00 at any grocery store.)
1/4 cup popcorn( I bought a 8 pound jar at Costco for only $10.00. At that price it would make around 60-70 bags of homemade microwave popcorn. Talk about inexpensive.)

  1. Place popcorn in brown paper lunch bag.
  2. Fold lunch bag over twice. Do not staple as it might spark in the microwave.
  3. Stick the bag in the microwave. 
  4. Let it pop  2-3 minutes. 
  5. Stop the microwave when the popping slows to 1-2 pops per second.You don't want to burn your tasty snack.
  6. Place in a big bowl. (We made 3 bags. And at this price why not?)
  7. Add melt butter and sprinkle salt on it for extra flavor.
