3 Ways To Make Homemade Vegan Popcorn

April 15, 2018 MEGAN ROBERTS

Popcorn is such an easy and fun snack. We are constantly making it on the weekends while we have family movie night. Ditch the store bought popcorn (its really not very healthy) and enjoy your own homemade popcorn. Because until you’ve had popcorn cooked the old-fashioned way...on the stove top, microwave popcorn just doesn’t even compare!

My recipe allows the popcorn kernels to come to an even temperature before popping, which results in much fewer un-popped kernels and fewer burnt kernels. I have listed my top 3 favorite ways to make homemade Vegan Popcorn.


TOGARASHI LIME POPCORN
I  love the brightness of lime and the heat of togarashi with this quick, one pot snack!

INGREDIENTS
3 tbsp corn kernels
2 tbsp vegan butter
1 tsp togarashi
1 lime
1 tbsp vegetable oil
alt and pepper

Add 1 tbsp vegetable oil and just 1 corn kernel to a large pot set over medium-high heat. Cook until corn kernel pops, about 5 to 8 minutes. Add the remaining corn kernels to the pot in an even layer. Reduce heat to medium, cover with a lid, and shake the pot to encourage even cooking. Continue to cook until most kernels pop, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove pot from heat and stir in vegan butter until fully melted and popcorn is evenly coated. Zest lime over popcorn. Add as much or as little togarashi as you’d like. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss togarashi-lime popcorn until spices are well distributed. Serve immediately.

CHEESY DILL POPCORN
Seriously, if you’re a popcorn love and cheese and dill are your thang, give this popcorn a try. I dare you not to stuff your face, too.

INGREDIENTS
½ cup popcorn kernels
¼ cup vegan butter, melted (I used Earth Balance)
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
¼ cup nutritional yeast
1 tsp salt

Pop your popcorn and place into a large, brown paper bag. Drizzle half of the melted butter, close the bag, and shake and about 15 seconds. Repeat with remaining butter. Do the same with the apple cider vinegar. Sprinkle the fresh dill, nutrotional yeast and salt over the popcorn. Close the bag and shake again for 15-30 seconds, or until all popcorn is coated well. Dump popcorn into serving bowls and serve immediately.

OLIVE OIL & ROSEMARY PEPPERED POPCORN
Butter vegan popcorn is what we all love! So what can you do to make popcorn all buttery and yummy? ...olive oil! Why not? Toss in some freshly minced rosemary and ground black pepper, you are good to go!

Ingredients
1 cup of un-popped popcorn
1/3 of a cup of extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon + a teaspoon of fresh rosemary – minced
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Salt to taste

Pop the popcorn. While the corn is popping, put the rosemary in the olive oil and heat until warm. Pour the oil mixture over the popcorn and toss well. Grind in black pepper and salt to taste. Olive oil infused with rosemary and freshly ground pepper, the most decadent popcorn you’ll ever eat.

🌹Valentine's Day can rekindle the romance in your marriage…and being romantic is soooo good for your relationship.. Whether you go out, stay home, get dressed up, or opt for your jammies, make this Valentine’s Day special with your spouse….not because Hallmark told you to, or because I told you to, but because your relationship deserves to be honored, even if for just one day of the year.

Do not miss the opportunity to kiss, hug, and be intimate together on Valentine's Day, my friends. That would be tragic! 💋In what unique and meaningful ways does your family celebrate Valentine's Day? 
Do you have some time-honored traditions for this holiday you can share with me?

I hope you and your loved ones have a very SWEET Valentine’s Day!

❣️ Valentine Kabobs ❣️ I served these to the little toddlers at our Valentines Party, and they loved them!

I purchased the vegan brownies from @sweettoothfairy 
brought them home, and used my heart cookie cutter to shape them.

I bought the @mydandies marshmallows on @amazon . They are delicious and vegan! Then I melted non-dairy chocolate chips and dipped the marshmallows. 
For the final touch, I used fresh raspberries!  Click the link in my bio to read about all the fun treats we served at our party!!! 🍢What is your all time favorite Valentine treat?

💋There's probably a reason so many songs are about love. Something about the epic and poetic nature of music and lyrics seems to effortlessly conjure up feelings of romantic emotion. Sometimes the emotional memory associated with particular songs is so strong that hearing a specific song can bring us back to the most intimate moments we shared with someone... Sean & I have a love song, our Wedding Dance song, “When You Love a Woman” by the band Journey. 
We took lessons for a choreographed wedding dance and performed it at our reception. Every time we listen to that song we reminisce of that beautiful night Sean tossing me into the air and cradling me in his arms while we spun. 🎼Do you have a love song? If so please share... I would love to compile a playlist for Valentines! .
