Trader Joe’s Popcorn with Herbs & Spices: Copycat Recipe

March 31, 2017 by Lisa 2 Comments

Trader Joe’s is our go-to for frozen foods, snacks and treats. My favorite treat is Trader Joe’s Popcorn with Herbs & Spices.

Trader Joe's Popcorn with Herbs and Spices Copy Cat Recipe via Atypical Familia by Lisa Quinones Fontanez

I can easily eat the entire bag in one sitting. I’m not proud of this, but it’s the truth. It’s that good!

Living in The Bronx and being a non-driver, I can’t just get up and go to Trader Joe’s when the mood strikes.

Side note/Side eye: The Bronx is the only borough in NYC without a Trader Joe’s.

And there are plenty of Saturday nights when I’d love a big bowl of Trader Joe’s Popcorn with Herbs & Spices. So I decided to make my own.

It was just as good as the one I buy at Trader Joe’s. And so incredibly easy to make!

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup of Popcorn Kernals

  • 1 tsp Nutritional Yeast I used Bragg's Nutritional Yeast Seasoning
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Celery Seed
  • 1 tsp Dill
  • 1/2 tsp Sea Salt

Directions

  1. Pop popcorn.
  2. Combine and stir yeast, onion powder, garlic powder, celery seed, dill & sea salt to make Herbs & Spices seasoning.
  3. Add Olive Oil to seasoning, stir to combine

I've made this with and without pepper. I prefer it without. But if you like pepper - have at it!

Copy Cat Recipe Trader Joe's Popcorn with Herbs and Spices via Atypical Familia by Lisa Quinones-Fontanez

Norrin loves it too. He was actually my inspiration behind my Trader Joe’s Popcorn copy cat recipe. He’s been asking to make popcorn in a popcorn machine lately – why? don’t know.

I know popcorn makers can get pricy and I didn’t want anything that would be too complicated or take up space. I purchased the Lékué Popcorn Maker from Sur La Table. It’s silicon, it’s collapsable and it’s only $20. It’s easy to clean and pretty much a no brainer to use.

I grew up with Jiffy Pop – you know that old school popcorn you made on the stove. And I’ll occasionally buy the microwave popcorn bags.

So this was my first attempt making popcorn with popcorn kernels. I was surprised by how a little could go a long way – 1/3 cup is enough for all of us to enjoy.

And I couldn’t resist the vintage popcorn container.

The Lékué Popcorn Maker comes with a few recipes and I’m eager to make our own popcorn concoctions.

Now whenever I make popcorn for our family movie nights, Norrin calls it: Playing Movie Theatre.

    Hi! I too can eat an entire bag of this in one sitting – and then use my fingers to get all the seasoning out of the bag! Do you use ground celery seed or whole?

    I literally can’t thank you enough for this recipe. I have recently become absolutely in love with Trader Joe’s Popcorn with Herbs & Spices, so naturally, I wanted to figure it out on my own. I have failed over and over again trying to figure it out. Your recipe is spot on!

Instagram post 2181675747075400220_20602182 When I graduated with an MFA, I knew I wanted to teach at the college level. Having the opportunity to return to my alma mater as an adjunct lecturer is truly a gift. And my long term goal is to get my PhD so that I may continue a career in academia. I know it’s a white dominated field and I have to bring my own chair to the table. But I have a right to sit at the table. I have the brains, the determination and the passion. And I deserve equal pay. Salary should not be determined by ethnicity or gender. “Each day that a Latina is not paid fairly is one day too many, and the impact of losing even one cent has real consequences for Latinas and our families.” #latinaequalpay

Instagram post 2180745009056316697_20602182 I just said this the other day... I feel so much better - physically, emotionally, spiritually - about myself now at 44 than I did at 24. I When I was in my 20s and 30s I used to think of 40 as “old” but it’s not. In so many ways my life is just beginning. I’m not where I want to be but I am hopeful. Although I don’t know what’s next. I do know that I have enough. I do enough. I am enough. And as long as I keep doing the next right thing, the right things will happen. 🪁
