Erin’s Bitchin’ Buffalo Ranch Popcorn

Do you ever just crave something and get super depressed because there’s nowhere nearby to eat and everything is closed and you’re too lazy to figure it out?

Yea, me too! ALL. THE. TIME.

So a few weeks ago, I was home alone. Being super emo watching movies with Doug, missing my boyfriend. When a commercial for wings came on. I don’t even know what restaurant it was, but they were pushing the Buffalo wings hard. And it totally worked. If I wasn’t 2 (ok maybe 4) glasses of wine deep I probably would have driven to some random chain restaurant for them. But, that wasn’t in the cards. So I did what any normal, hungry girl would do. Started to raid every cabinet in my kitchen. I stumbled upon something beautiful, Frank’s Red Hot Sauce. HELL YEA! But then I realized something really sad, I didn’t have any chicken. So, I got really avant-garde and decided to make something “Buffalo Inspired”. And what I came with was mind boggling…

Buffalo Ranch Popcorn, which I’ve now decided to call “Erin’s Bitchin’ Buffalo Ranch Popcorn”. My dad uses the term “bitchin” all the time and it makes me laugh, so obviously… my new recipe is totally bitchin’.

Here’s what you’ll need:

-8 Cups of freshly popped Pop Corn (if you’re using a bag you should get about 8 cups)

-2 Tablespoons of Butter (I actually used Earth Balance Spread because I was trying to be “healthy”)

-3 Tablespoons of Wing Sauce (I went with Frank’s)

-3/4 of a packet of Ranch Dressing Mix (like this stuff)

Pour your popcorn into a big bowl. In a smaller bowl, mix the Butter (melted) and Wing Sauce. Pour it over the Popcorn and mix it up. Then, sprinkle the Ranch Dressing Mix on top and mix again! DIG IN & enjoy!

Doug tested the recipe and totally approved too. Now… what movies are good on Netflix right to catch up on!?
