Recipe: Salted Caramel Popcorn

Who doesn't love a salty and sweet treat?  It's the best of both worlds and you don't have to choose between the two or land up eating something salty and something sweet.  I took the caramel I made here and used it to cook up this delicious popcorn.  If you want though you can totally use store bought caramel too!  This would make for a nice gift (put it in a cute mason jar!) or party favor, or you could just eat it yourself because it is too good to giveaway.  Learn how to make your own below.

Ingredients:

-10 cups popped popcorn (1/2 popcorn kernels + 3 tbsp. canola oil)
