Popcorn is a type of corn that explodes from the kernel and puffs up when heated. It is considered a healthier snack option, since it is 100% unprocessed whole grain. Other than its high fibre contents, popcorn is also a good source of iron and B Vitamins. This is grown from non-GMO corn.
Directions: Brush a heavy saucepan with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Heat pan and add 1/2 cup of popcorn kernels, then cover. Keep shaking the covered pan until all kernels have popped. Add desired ingredients to taste. It can also be made in a popcorn maker.
