One of the most common obstacles we have to overcome is snacking and sweet tooth struggles. The entire team is into this journey of always...always looking for healthier, high-protein alternatives. The best alternative is a low-fat popcorn for its crunch factor and high volume of satiety, BUT you can only eat so much plain popcorn. Alas, here we are – Today's recipe solves that problem! We have stumbled upon one of Elite Supps Athletes recipe and thought to share it with you guys - how to make great tasting protein popcorn.
