In the past, I have shared some great snack ideas on my blog. You can see the chick peas that we have toasted and the dehydrated bananas. These are two of our favorite snacks, but this is another one that we really enjoy.

The kids really love it and think it’s a great treat when I take out the popcorn maker. It is so easy to use and makes a pretty healthy snack too! I don’t add a ton of gunk to our popcorn and the kids still gobble it up! It's fast too - totally ready in about 5 minutes!

Here is what I do:

• ¼ cup of popcorn (that’s plenty for one bowl for my 5 kids)
• A little olive oil (coconut oil works great too) – I don’t measure, I just pour in about a tablespoon or so
• Some salt – I just pour in about a half a tablespoon to start and add some after it has popped
• I put all this in the popper, cook it for a few minutes, and it comes out tasting great.

  If I need to make more popcorn, I just add a little more popcorn and salt. I usually just use the same amount of oil no matter how much I’m making and it turns out great.

Happy kids with a healthy snack!
