Who doesn’t like popcorn? It can be your best buddy for a cozy movie night in. This easy and fun Chlorella & Cacao Flavored Crunchy Popcorn can be made in a matter of minutes, while you are getting ready to watch a movie in the comfort of your living room.

Chlorella is an edible algae and a rich source of nutrients and antioxidants. It is also a great source of plant based protein, and is best eaten raw to avoid diminishing its precious nutritional value. The chlorella powder contains notes of the ocean and will contrast against the rich dark flavor of the cacao. Getting creative, like coating your popcorn, is just one of the many delicious ways to consume it!
