Top Three Popcorn Picks!

If you know me, you know I LOVE popcorn.

It's a bit unnatural. I eat it pretty much daily and don't see myself stopping anytime soon.

I sometimes pop my own but it's so much more convenient to have pre-popped popcorn. I personally don't believe popcorn should be a "guilty pleasure" or a special treat. I consider it a satisfying, munchy, whole grain snack. Here are my top three pre-popped popcorn choices as far as I've tried.

1. Square Organics Sweet Protein Popcorn


This popcorn is addictive and so delicious. Not only is it delicious, but it also packs a plant-based protein punch. It's also organic, non GMO, naturally high in fiber and has 8 grams of MCTs. Look at these ingredients: organic popcorn, organic coconut oil, organic whole grain brown rice protein, organic coconut sugar, sea salt. Stellar!

I also love the spicy flavor but I do add some salt. I love salt lol!

2. LiveLovePop Honey Barbecue and/or Cheddar Sour Cream

I simply cannot choose between the two - they are both so tasty. They make a perfect savory snack. They are non GMO, gluten free, naturally high in fiber and seriously delicious. They have a whole line of intriguing and delicious popcorn flavors but those two are my favorites from this brand. They are also a lot of fun! Check them out here: LiveLovePop.com

3. Sinfully Thin SuperPop Popcorn

Don't let the green tint of this popcorn deter you. It is delicious! There is dehydrated kale which gives it the green color, but it's more of an herb/spice taste, not kale. It's non GMO, gluten free and made with nothing artificial. I often pick these up at Sheetz gas stations on road trips! They have other great flavors as well. Check them out here: OpenRoadSnacks.com

*I have also recently tried Icon Meals Protein Popcorn but I do consider that as more of a treat for me personally, but it is certainly delicious! I've only tried the chocolate sea salt flavor so far.

Do you like popcorn? Do you get popcorn at the movie theater or sneak your own in? XD

Gut Healthy Gummy Bears! Keto Friendly

Image
Team Sour or Team Sweet? I'm team sour all the way! These gummies are surprisingly easy to make if you have a gummy bear mold (they're very inexpensive on amazon!) and they have the gut-health benefits of prebiotic fiber and gelatin! First they're sour, then they're sweet. Ingredients: 40g VitaFiber IMO syrup  1 tbsp gelatin liquid stevia to taste (I used orange stevia) 1/2 cup water Directions: Heat the mixture on the stove until bubbling.  Use the dropper to fill the gummy bear molds.  Place in fridge until set.  Just before eating, toss the gummy bears in a mixture of citric acid powder, and granulated sweetener of choice (I used a monk fruit/erythritol blend).  Voila! Sour gummies!

Keto Meringues! Sugar Free!

Image
I recently had the idea to make Meringue cookies and my curiosity was piqued at the idea of making sugar free meringue cookies. I wondered if it would work!  3 calories a piece?! I'll take 10!  I took to Google, and to my surprise there were recipes with Splenda, erythritol, stevia and beyond! I decided to try my hand at sugar free meringues with an erythritol based sweetener I just purchased recently. The brand is Swerve and I purchased it from Luckyvitamin.com. It claims to have no aftertaste! Meringues can be a bit tricky to set up due to humidity and given that it was a hot August day in North Carolina, I think they turned out pretty well! The texture was good on most of them but a few of them were still a bit soft in the middle.  Factors working against me: I didn't have enough egg whites I didn't have cream of tartar I was attempting sugar free I didn't have parchment paper Humidity You may be thinking, why even bother? Well, I don...
