Super Epic Ranch Popcorn


So.. I have been on a diet.. and the other day I realized at the end of the day I had almost 1000 calories left over. So I decided to treat myself and to have some regular NOT diet popcorn! But since it was a treat.. I wanted to flavor it up really nice.. and I came up with THEE most amazing recipe for popcorn. Its easy and it only takes 2 ingredients.

And just incase you are curious about the calories for a bag of regular popcorn.. It was 393 calories for an entire bag of Orville Redenbacher's Movie Theater Butter.

Ingredients:

  • 1 bag Orville Redenbacher's Movie Theater Butter popcorn (or honestly any other popcorn) (393 calories)
  • 1 0.4oz package of Hidden Valley Ranch Buttermilk Dressing seasoning. (0 calories)
Instructions:
  1. Pop your popcorn in the microwave.
  2. Open your bag of popcorn and dump in the package of ranch seasoning.
  3. Shake and shake and shake some more until all the popcorn is evenly coated.
  4. ENJOY!
My husband, brother, and myself.. all went NUTS over this. I am also going to try using some of the seasoning on my little 100 calorie bags of popcorn at some point. I hope you enjoy this as much as we all did over here!

Thanks for reading!

Meaty Deep Dish Pizza

Tonight I was thinking PIZZA! Its the weekend, me and my husband had some episodes of Master Chef to catch up on.. so whats better than pizza?! As you can see in this picture.. there was some dough hanging over the edges.. I cut it off. This is what it looked like cut off so I decided to fold it down so the pie would look prettier. Ready for the oven! All popped out of the pan and ready for devouring.  Sooooooooooo good! I was worried that it was going to be soggy once I cut into it but that liquid was the only bit that was in there.. it was not soggy at all I promise.. it was amazing.
