Ok so I absolutely LOVE popcorn, but I could never eat it because of all the fatty butter, well I have discovered a new recipe! I like my popcorn with a kick of flavor, so I used a recipe from http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/rachael-ray/zippy-italian-popcorn-recipe/index.html (foodnetwork.com) it's called the Zippy italian popcorn.
You add one teaspoon of garlic powder, red pepper and oregano with 1/3 cup of Parmesan cheese. See, the recipe calls for a fair amount of butter, but with a little experimenting I figured out that you can use extra virgin olive oil instead. It has the same consistency as butter but with the healthier kind of fats.
I was just so excited about this I had to share it, so I hope you enjoy! :D

    Nice! I love buttery popcorn, but it's nice to think about all the flavours you can play with--you could do a "global" tasting or something: five spice honey popcorn, italian popcorn, curry popcorn... mmm! Thanks for the link!

    I make my own with spray I can't believe it's not butter and parmesan or popcorn cheese.
