Homemade Microwave Popcorn Recipe

In a small bowl, mix together all the ingredients, so that the kernels are coated nicely with the oil and salt.

Pour the kernels into the bottom of the lunch bag.

Make two 1/2 inch folds from the top of the bag creating a seal.

Using Two Staples (no more, no less!) staple the bag shut.

Lay the bag on its side - allowing the kernels to spread out in a single layer.

Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes.

When the kernels are popping only more than every 3 seconds - it is done. Anymore and it will burn!

Carefully remove the popcorn from the bag - there will be lots of hot steam.

Flavor the popcorn with anything you like and enjoy!

(**Note**) Putting metal in the microwave is not safe, but two staples is not enough metal to cause any unwanted problems. This has been tested and confirmed by several sources, so this method is considered safe.
