I have a whole container of sorghum grain - I will try popping it now....never thought of that! :)<br /><br />We make popcorn on the stove this way....I heat a large stock pot (8 quart) over high heat, then add a few tablespoons (4 to 5) of virgin coconut oil and about 1/2 tsp sea salt. Then add a layer of popcorn kernals, cover, and shake the pot a bit over the burner. Remove from heat when the popcorn is pushing the lid off and you don't hear much popping anymore. This way it is already seasoned from the oil and salt! <br /><br />I make this so my daughter can pack it in her lunch occasinally; also good for outings in the park when everyone else is eating potato chips!

I just love that line! That is the way I felt when I read your post about eating peanut butter with sliced cucumbers on a sandwich. I tried it and it was wonderful! In our family, we eat popcorn as if it is another food group. We have an air popper and then we melt butter in a small cup and carefully spoon it over the popcorn. Ever since our son was very little (he's nineteen now!) he has always been able to pick out the most butter saturated pieces of popcorn! Really great late in the evening with cheese, especially if my husband (who is the Celiac) hasn't had enough food.Kay Guestnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367606500491736318.post-69834967722573994822008-11-08T12:20:00.000-05:002008-11-08T12:20:00.000-05:00I'm happy to read this post.

It's something I "borrowed" from a family we are friends with called "PCA" --popcorn, cheese, & apples. You get your grains, dairy, protein, and fruit all in one and no one has to cook. I have to say it's my favorite meal of the week! :)Kristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13042437967144620098noreply@blogger.com
