Hey everyone, okay so I have been making a couple of different baking recipes, and I can’t wait to share them. Yesterday while on my way home. I finally remembered what my YouTube account information was, and I was able to log into my account. I had no attentions on making homemade caramel popcorn. Once I watched the video and saw how simple it was to make, I ran in the house and started the process. The original video I watched was made with homemade popcorn. I had NO intentions on running to the store so I made this recipe with the microwavable popcorn that is pre-packaged… Let’s just say that the popcorn did not make it into the oven. It was so delish!! I plan on making this recipe again ~~today~~ very soon. I honestly cannot tell you if my family enjoyed this treat. I pretty much ate a good portion of this caramel popcorn.

PS. Also, I will probably double the caramel sauce for this recipe. If I am unable to fully cover the popcorn the next time I make this recipe.

Recipe:

5 Tablespoons of butter
1/2 Cup of brown sugar
1/4 Cup corn syrup
~~1 teaspoon~~ ~~salt~~ (I did not use salt, I used salted butter. Plus the popcorn was salted)
1/2 Teaspoon baking soda
1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
8 cups of popcorn (I used microwaveable popcorn)

Directions

Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Place popcorn in a very large bowl.

In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Stir in brown sugar and corn syrup. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil without stirring 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in baking soda and vanilla. Pour in a thin stream over popcorn, stirring to coat.

Place in two large shallow baking dishes and bake in preheated oven, stirring every 15 minutes, for 1 hour. Remove from oven and let cool completely before breaking into pieces.

If you try this recipe, let me know. Leave a comment, pin it (so you have it saved), and don’t forget to tag a picture use the hashtag >> #simplytasheena on Instagram. I would love to see how it turned out.

I was super excied to have the opportunity to try EatGreenTea. I am one of those people who love drinking green tea/juices so I was super excited to try the real thing. At first I thought the product was bitter, and was not going to try it again. After reconsidering. I decided to give this product another chance, and I’m so happy that I did. I guess I my palette was use to the taste after the first try. I deicded to add it to my food which made it effortless. I love this product in my omletes, (sorry no picutes, my omletes don’t usually come out pretty. I love that EatGreenTea usues pure green leaves which is a plus for me. I am so happy that I gave this prouct another chance. My biggest suggestion would be to have fun with this product. EatGreenTea has did an amazing job, with having a huge list of recipes to incorportate EatGreenTea in.

Taste

The taste will vary. Green Tea is naturally has a little bitter taste. However, I’ve mixed the Green Tea in my meals and haven’t had a noticeable difference with the taste. Your palette will pretty much adapt to the change.

Conclusion

I really enjoyed the samples I received of EatGreenTea, I do plan on incorporating this product in my regimen at some point. I truly love how I have the option to place the EatGreentea in my meals or drink it. (No excuses right?) I love how this product is really affordable. I also love the quality of this product, and knowing that I am only ingesting the best leaves in my body. Did I mention the different versions that EatGreenTea has to offer? This product is perfect for cooking, baking or making on the go smoothies.
