I am a mother with two young children at home. One of my biggest challenges is to create exciting new dishes for my family each day. We love to try new ingredients or new combinations to make them fun and delicious. Let's cook together. It will be a fun ride. I promise!

Salted Caramel Popcorn
The perfect snack to share watching an awesome movie!
Ingredients:
2 Tbspn. canola oil
3/4 cup popcorn kernels
2 cups sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons sea salt
Directions:
Spray 2 large, rimmed baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray. Heat the oil in a large heavy pot over medium-high heat until it is hot but not smoking. Add the popcorn kernels and cover the pot. Using pot holders, shake the pot constantly over the heat as the kernels pop, about 5 minutes, or until the kernels stop popping. Immediately spread the popcorn out on the prepared baking sheets.
Stir the sugar, salt, and 1/4 cup water in a small heavy saucepan over low heat until the sugar dissolves, occasionally brushing down the sides of the pan with a wet pastry brush. Increase the heat and boil without stirring, occasionally brushing down the sides and swirling the pan, until the syrup is a deep amber color, about 8 minutes.
Working quickly, drizzle the hot caramel over the popcorn and toss with 2 wooden spoons to coat the popcorn lightly. Be careful not to get hot caramel on your skin! Allow the caramel corn to cool slightly.
Enjoy!
