I use a POPCO
Popcorn Popper to make popcorn. I am not normally an advocate of the
microwave, but when it comes to making popcorn I am. I can make oil-free
popcorn easily using this popper.
Important
note: I only recommend air popped or a microwave popper so that your
popcorn can be prepared without oil. Oils add calories and extra fats of a type
that works against the liver.
1.
Add kernels to popper (and any other desired ingredients)
2.
Cover with lid
3.
Put in microwave and press the ‘popcorn’ button (about 2 and 1/2
minutes)
4. Eat directly from the bowl or transfer to
another heat safe bowl.
NOTES: Oil-free popcorn is
ideal because oils can cause adverse reactions for those with IBS. In fact, it’s not
recommended that you eat popcorn while experiencing painful IBS symptoms,
but once you get your symptoms under control, popcorn makes a good snack. Most
can have up to 7 cups popped.
Since popcorn is a grain it should be avoided while on all healing diets. Yet, popcorn is a great REAL FOOD snack when prepared at home using fresh, NON-GMO, and organic ingredients. It was the most difficult grain for me to "give up" while healing, but it was definitely worth the wait.
