So I LOVE going to the movies! And I LOVE buying their ridiculously unhealthy popcorn! Well, one solution to that problem is to just stop going to the movies. Problem solved! Ummmm...that's ridiculous! Especially since I signed myself and my kiddos up for the kids matinee Summer movie program. Well since they don't seem to care if you bring in outside food (I think because it is an older theater.) I came up with a solution.
Now this solution is SO SO SO SO SO not as good as the regular movie theater popcorn, but I am working on changing my taste buds for the good.
Solution: AIR POPPED POPCORN!!!
I know, bland, bland, bland...but the more I ate of it, the better it tasted.
I popped 1/4 cup popcorn kernels which made a ton of popcorn.
And it was only.... 4 WW pts +!!!!!
So, it was healthy, it was cheap, and it ended up being pretty delicious. And since popcorn is pretty versatile, you can add whatever spices you want.
Now, I also love eating candy while I am at the movies. And since I am trying to avoid candy, I took craisins instead!
They were only 3 WW pts + for 1/3 cup!!!
It didn't look like much when I first measured it, but it took me awhile to munch on them during my show. Plus they were sweet & tart...both things I love!
Now you can enjoy your movie!!!
