What's your favorite budget "little treat"?
When I want a little sweet treat I make smoothies.
My base is always frozen banana + milk + oats then do one of these:
Cinnamon + vanilla
Pumpkin + pumpkin spice+ brown sugar
Strawberries/blue berries
Cost like under a dollar to make a good cup and they are pretty filling.

Popcorn with garlic powder, Parmesan, and black pepper.
35¢ of ingredients for a gourmet-feeling snack.
Oooh great shout! Now remembering how crazy we would go with the little $20 popcorn machine my mom bought.
And does it just stick? If so what's the trick? I pop my popcorn, and it must be some crazy salt resistant mutation. I have ground the salt up in a blender, bought the popcorn salt, etc and it's like the popcorn has some defense mechanism.
I mean a small amount of oil usually helps.
You're not using enough oil when you pop, or you're not seeing it soon enough after removing it from the heat.
I am popping it in a microwave silicon popper. Does a great job popping, but I might have to go back to the oil method and a metal bowl. Thanks.
Tried Flavacol?
I had no idea that existed. Thanks! I am going to order some.
No problem! Glad I could help, hope it works for you!
