ingredients
1/2 cup unpopped popcorn
3 tablespoons melted butter
salt, to taste
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese or other toppings (optional)
directions
Place the unpopped popcorn in a brown paper bag. Fold the top of the bag over by 1/2-inch. Fold it again so it is now folded over twice. Seal the bag with two staples that are at least 3 inches apart. This will keep them from sparking in the microwave.
Place the bag in the microwave and cook on high power for 2-3 minutes, or until the popcorn is only popping about 5 seconds apart.
Remove the bag from the oven and carefully open it. It will be hot.
Transfer the popcorn to a bowl. Drizzle it with melted butter and season to taste with salt and cheese or other desired toppings. Serve immediately.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
