Description

Microwave popcorn is easy to make using standard popping corn and a brown paper lunch bag — it's low-fat, delicious, and works perfectly every time.

Ingredients

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

Directions

1 Gather all ingredients.
2 Mix together unpopped popcorn and oil in a cup or small bowl.
3 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.
4 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.
5 Enjoy!
