    Snack time is serious business in my house. My kids love popcorn! So much so, that we have a popcorn machine to handle our popcorn. Santa brought it a few years ago, and that thing gets some serious love! We have been experimenting with different seasonings on our popcorn and this Ranch Popcorn turned out amazing!

    How to Make Ranch Popcorn

    All I did was mix up some of my Ranch Dressing Mix.  I popped my popcorn as I usually would.

    Did you know you can make your own Microwave Popcorn Bags? It is super simple to do. A fun project for the kids.

    After you pop your corn, butter your popcorn and sprinkle with the ranch dressing mix. While you can use store bought, I highly recommend trying this recipe to make your own. It tastes so much better and is super affordable to make.

    Tips

    You don't even have to use butter! I spread the popcorn out on a pan and lightly spraying it with some cooking spray. It was just enough to get the seasoning to stick and not make the popcorn super greasy.

    You can also make this ahead and package it in smaller snack size zip top bags for grab and go snacks.
