Microwave Popcorn


 1/2 cup unpopped popcorn
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste

DIRECTIONS:

1.  In a cup or small bowl, mix together the unpopped popcorn and oil. Pour the coated corn into a brown paper lunch sack, and sprinkle in the salt. Fold the top of the bag over twice to seal in the ingredients.

2.  Cook in the microwave at full power for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes, or until you hear pauses of about 2 seconds between pops. Carefully open the bag to avoid steam, and pour into a serving bowl.

This recipe is from Rachel.  She said:  " I made this the other night......pretty tasty.  I burned the first batch by cooking too long.  I did it in my microwave for 2 min, but each microwave varies." 

I say it's got to be a lot cheaper than buying pre-packaged microwave popcorn.  And healthier too.  Have you ever read the nutrition  label on a package of microwave popcorn?
