We usually eat dinner between 9 and 10pm. My parents always give us a hard time because we eat dinner so late. I could say it's because we don't have kids so we can prepare dinner at our leisure. This is true. But I think the real reason is because we are snackers. We probably have the snacking thing backwards, but it works for us. For example, most of my family and friends prepare dinner when they get home from work, and then snack later in the evening. We, on the other hand snack immediately upon arrival to the house, then head to the grocery store to buy our ingredients for dinner that night.
Our snack, 99% of the time, is either salsa or popcorn.
Not just any popcorn. Spicy popcorn. Because everything has to be spicy according to Neto. My brother Tim, who is also crazy about spicy food, shared this recipe with us years ago.
With the invention of microwave popcorn, you may never have even made popcorn the "traditional" way. But trust me, it is worth the 5 extra minutes (and more healthy too)!
Pepper Popcorn
1Tbsp canola oil
2-3 hot peppers
Leave on high heat until charred.
Add 3/4 cup popcorn
Shake pan every 30 seconds until pan is full
Snack then dinner. I think it makes sense. What time do you guys eat dinner?
