Seasoned Popcorn

Sorry that the posts have slowed down the past few days. I have been under the weather and having a hard time getting into the kitchen and my camera was acting up and I had to exchange it. (Thank you Costco for having an awesome return policy.) I have a bunch of pictures for posts saved up that I have been meaning to post, but I just haven't gotten around to yet. Here is one of those posts.

While this is not necessarily an official recipe, I wanted to share it with you. I think that I first found our about the Kernel Season's Popcorn Seasoning from a WW magazine a few years ago. They often have a coupon for it in the magazine. I tried a few of the flavors and was very pleased with the outcome. They are very light on calories and really add a nice flavor. I think that I originally would put it over light microwave popcorn but I have since switched to air-popped. They also have their own spray to help the seasoning, stick but I use Pam or my oil-spritzer. These are the flavors that are in my cupboard right now. I love the ranch and my husband's favorite is the kettle corn. By the way, they are also great on steamed veggies and you can find them by the popcorn at the supermarket.

We have been making this more often since my husband started counting points. When he get home from work, he loves to snack but it not ready to have dinner yet. He used to eat a whole sleeve of ritz. Go figure the points on that and you will be sick. He eats about 5 points worth of the popcorn, but that is a huge bowl and it fills him up and keeps him from overeating at dinner.

Seasoned Popcorn
1 pts
Serving Size - 3 cups

Pop poporn with air popper. Lightly spray popcorn with non-stick spray, tossing so it is coated evenly. Shake seasoning over popcorn, tossing gently so that seasoning is distributed to all the popcorn. Serve.

I usually have a large cereal bowl (about 3 cups) for a serving and I have figured it at 1 pt.
