HEALTHY SNACK: POPCORN<\/h1>\n

\"\"<\/a>Are you looking for a healthy fall snack? \u00a0Maybe it\u2019s time to rethink that old friend: popcorn. \u00a0I\u2019m not talking about the butter soaked, over-sized bag you get at the theater, but a more calorie-conscious alternative.<\/p>\n

Try popping it on the stove top using a saucepan with just a bit of extra virgin olive oil. \u00a0Not only is popcorn a whole grain and good source of dietary fiber, it is naturally low in calories. \u00a0On average, one cup of unbuttered, unflavored popcorn is a mere 50 calories!<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking to give your snack some added pizazz and still keep its nutritional value in check, try seasoning it with a little Mrs. Dash. \u00a0\u00a0For a sweeter alternative, try dusting it with a some cinnamon and Splenda.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
