Superbowl Sunday usually means lots of snacks, greasy appetizers & alcohol. It may be other people’s day to let loose, but if you’d still like to stick to your healthy lifestyle, then treat yourself to the right snacks! I’ve been on a huge popcorn kick lately. And, I love how easy and simple it is to make homemade popcorn that tastes great and is healthy!
Just because this recipe is Strong Girl approved, doesn’t mean you can eat the entire bowl! (That’s about 480 calories! It’s okay, I’m a culprit, too! shh!) I have to remind myself, it’s a snack, not dinner!
It takes 5 minutes to make and you can spice it up to your favorite flavor with cooking seasoning!

Strong Girl Homemade Popcorn
- Spray a large pan with coconut oil spray or cover pan with 1-2 tbs unrefined coconut oil from the jar
- Pour in 1/2 cup of yellow popping corn
- Cover & heat over medium heat, shaking the pan back and forth. Slightly crack the cover open to let steam out (the popcorn will literally pop out if you crack it open too much!)
- When you hear the popping slow down turn down the heat to low and take off the stove once the popping has almost stopped! (it will burn if you leave it on too long!)
- Pour the popcorn in a bowl. Sprinkle sea salt, pepper and garlic & then drizzle a tad of olive oil or my favorite- garlic avocado oil!
- Sit back, relax, share & enjoy!
