Yes. Nothing is impossible. I thought that, living in this rural place, I would never be able to get nutritional yeast. But thanks to Carolie who sent me two jars of it -- as well as many other goodies --, now I'm enjoying the afternoon munching on homemade popcorn sprinkled with generous amount of nutritional yeast (and salt, of course ;))
Ah... Homemade popcorn. It reminds me of the fun times I had when I was younger... like my first slumber party(?) in the U.S., winter vacation at my dorm-mate's house, and "video and popcorn nights" (in those days there was no such thing as DVDs.

Hurray!! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Let me know if you run out and I will get you more. I love the stuff, and use it a lot (it's especially good sprinkled on minestrone soup!)

I love nutritional yeast and it's gorgeous taste! A wonderful idea to combine it with popcorn!

never tried nutritional yeast but is sounds really good :)

wow. the popcorn looks nicer than the cinema's!
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize nutritional yeast tasted like cheese! What a great idea for popcorn.

ReplyDeleteI REALLY enjoyed it. Thank you so much, Carolie. Yeah, this must be great with minestrone and other soup dishes! I'm gonna give it a try soon... And "grits with nutritional yeast," too. :D
Rosa
Yeah, such a good idea. :) It's nice to find out that there are healthy alternatives for most of "not-so-healthy" food that I love.
K & S
It is. :)
Lina
You can say that again ;)
Christine
Well, there is such thing as candied popcorn, so I guess there's nothing wrong with your sugar-popcorn combination. ;)

Yeah, and the nutritional yeast version may be pretty good with green tea, too. (It's just my hunch, though.)

Of course. ;);)
