Hi everyone.

So I have been eating air popped popcorn for a snack for months because it is so low cal but I was getting so tired of it! The other night I was at the store, shopping for Five Chinese Spice in the spice isle and I came across this Land O Lakes seasoning. The one I bought was Sharp cheddar, They have a ton of different flavors like Parmesan Garlic, Butter, White Cheddar, etc. It said to use it on potatoes, soups, etc but I thought it would taste awesome on popcorn! And it does! It's only 5 calories for a 1/2 tsp. and 0 fat.

Does anyone have any great popcorn recipes (low cal of course!) that they would like to share? I am really interested to see what others post!

Thanks all!

    I like the Kernel Seasons popcorn topping. Its only 2 cals for 1/4 tsp. I'll add a couple sprays of I Can't Believe It's Not Butter spray, and the seasoning. They have a bunch of flavors too.

    I go a little crazy with popcorn. I love to sprinkle cinnamon, raisins and sometimes sliced almonds over mine and drizzle on a little honey. Or I'll put chocolate chips and some sliced almonds in. It's a great way to get a sweet fix for me! :happy:

    I like homemade kettle corn. If you have your own stovetop popper, you just had some sugar in with the kernals (1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 oil, 1/2 kernals I think). Yum!

    I LOVE popcorn.. I bought the 100 calorie bags in kettle corn and light butter. But i love to get popcorn and squeeze a mexican lime and add hot sauce (like tapatio) it tastes so good. I also add lemon and tapatio to apples, cucumbers, and oranges. It gives them a good twist.

    My old college roommate got me hooked on eating it this way too!
    I had totally forgotten about it!
