Popcorn is a classic American snack that is actually quite healthy. Well, it is healthy if you make it correctly, that it. Many prepacked, microwavable popcorn bags are full of salt, fat and unnecessary additives that make popcorn not so great for you. Instead of buying those unhealthy bags of popcorn, why not make your own?? If you have an Instant Pot, you can pop your own popcorn in a matter of minutes then add any seasonings you’d like. Custom made popcorn that is actually good for you is just a few steps away!
