Coconut Oil Popcorn

Popcorn is it's own food group in our house.  Movie nights, afternoon snacks, and Sunday night dinner's popcorn is a staple.  In a recent attempt to eat more pure, I went on a search for a good health homemade popcorn option.  Below is a recipe that I worked up for our us.  Warning! It makes a ton of popcorn but the recipe can be cut.

Coconut Oil Popcorn

2 Tbsp coconut oil

1 c. popcorn kernels

Heat coconut oil in a large skillet to melt and slowly add kernels.  Keep temperature on medium high until kernels start to pop.  Do not leave unattended!  Because my recipe make so much popcorn I start scooping out popped corn to make room for more.  Salt or season as you like and enjoy!

Homemade Organic Face Scrub

Today I will make it short and sweet.  I have been looking to make my beauty regiment  more pure.  I have started to slowly developed some recipes to replace my store bought chemical products.  This face scrub worked out great to replace my usual scrub and a big plus is I can pronounce the ingredients. 

Organic Face Scrub
1/2 c. sugar
2 Tbsp coconut oil
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp honey
1/4 tsp apple cider vinegar 



Mix all ingredients together in a glass bowl and store in an air tight container.  I chose a mason jar to store mine in.  This also makes a great gift. This recipe can be doubled or even tripled.
