"Cheezy" Superfood Popcorn
Sep 6th 2019
There's a reason popcorn is one of the most popular snacks around. It's light, has a satisfying crunch, and can be flavored as dynamically as potato chips! Plain popcorn is great and all, but if we're being honest--sometimes you need to jazz it up!
We understand healthy eating 100% of the time is nearly impossible. But a good place to start is sprinkling superfoods on your snacks, meals, and smoothies to give it a nutrition boost! Check out our jazzed-up popcorn recipe below.
Consider this a plant-based variation of the dairy-based cheesy popcorn. Instead of dairy-cheese, we use nutritional yeast to give it that ever-so-cheesy flavor. Nutritional yeast is essentially deactivated yeast with B-vitamins and protein. Contrary to the confusion of its name, nutritional is indeed gluten-free and ok for Candida Diets.
For anti-inflammatory properties and beautiful color, we also include turmeric. It contains a powerful compound called curcumin, renowned for its potential to support and balance inflammation in the body. The anti-inflammatory benefits may help support healthy joints, mobility, and muscles. Curcumin is also a potent antioxidant, helping to support your immune system, and brain health.
It's important to note this one can get messy. Keep the cloth napkins close by and enjoy!
