DO IT YOURSELF FLAVORED POPCORN

SUBMITTED BY: Andrea Plumley Sullivan

Here is a recipe of sorts you guys might like to try for kids (or adult) parties

I teach 70 kids and needed some sort of cheap/fun party idea that included all of them. So here is what my partner and I came up with….

Do It Yourself Flavored Popcorn:

*Brown Lunchbags

*Popcorn (we found the more buttery the popcorn the better the flavoring stuck to it)

*Flavorings (see below)

-Fill Brown Lunchbags with popped popcorn about half way. We used Microwave popcorn and found that 1 regular sized bag was about enough to fill 3 lunch bags half way.

-Place 1 or 2 TBSP of flavoring in the bag.

-Twist Shut and shake to coat popcorn.

-Enjoy

To Make Flavorings Place Ingredients in a baggie or reusable container and mix. I put clean medicine cups in the baggies to measure out the TBSPs. You could also put flavorings in a shaker.

Flavorings we used (there are many variations you could do):

Vanilla Sugar

2 packages vanilla pudding and 2 cups granulated sugar

Strawberry (this was a favorite with the kids)

2 packages Strawberry Jello and 2 cups granulated sugar

Parmesan Ranch

1 Dry Ranch Dressing Packet and 2 cups Parmesan Cheese

Cinnamon Sugar

2 cups Granulated Sugar and 4 TBSP Cinnamon
