{ Banana S’more Popcorn Trail Mix }

If you know anything about me, you know that I am a sucker for anything with the word “S’more” in it.

Campfire S’mores, S’more Cake, S’more Cupcakes, S’more Poptarts, S’more Hot Chocolate Mugs,
S’more Ornaments…. yes.. I have a collection of S’more Ornaments. It’s True.

So S’more Popcorn Trail Mix. Yes. I love it as well.

I’ve seen S’more Popcorn around before without Bananas.

For some odd reason when I wanted to make this popcorn trail mix, I had the song ” Mele Kalikimaka” stuck in my head and at that moment needed a bit a “Hawaii” in my life haha. So I grabbed the closet thing to Hawaii I have in Southern Virginia….Banana Chips. These yelled “tropical” for some reason. Perhaps it was the pictures of palm trees on the bag or the sunset. Not sure, but I’m glad it did 🙂

My S’more Popcorn NEEDED THEM.

So then, I’m looking at all the popcorn choices. Ok.. like the 3 choices. Butter, EXTRA Butter, or EXTRA EXTRA Movie Theater Butter.

Eeek.

OK, maybe those are kinda good once in a while watching a movie at the movie theater, but I don’t want extra buttery greasy popcorn in my s’more trail mix.

So I went after the next best thing, brown paper bags and corn kernels.

Brown paper bags + corn kernels + microwave = beautiful low calorie non- greasy popcorn.
