Note: This recipe appears in the South Beach Diet Quick & Easy Cookbook. Who says popcorn is not good for you? Popcorn is a favorite snack when you're watching TV or a movie or even when you come home from work or school. You don't need a popcorn machine to make popcorn at home. All you need is a pot and olive oil. Heat a pot over medium heat with the oil in it & put the kernels in to let them pop. The kernels will eventually pop and the popcorn will taste just as good as microwave popcorn or popcorn you get at the movies. The butter spray combined with the Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper leaves a nice aftertaste in your mouth. There are only 5 ingredients in this recipe so feed this to Claire Robinson and she will be impressed. One bite of this popcorn and your movie night will never taste the same again.
