This popcorn is an easy and festive way to enjoy some leftover Easter candy! You can use any kind of candy, nuts, or "mix-ins" that you like! And make sure to adjust the salt at the end, it really helps to balance out the sweetness! Make sure to store this in a cool, dry, and airtight container, or the popcorn will become soft.

Pisco Sour II
This is a typical Chilean drink served at every party in Chile (also served before lunch or dinner). This is my mother's version and although there are may be as many versions of it as there are Chileans in Chile, I think this is the best!
Bacon and Cheese Fat Bombs
Following a keto diet means bacon and cream cheese are your best friends, and these fat bombs deliver the goods with spicy serrano peppers and zesty lime.
Coconut Chicken Tenders
These coconut chicken tenders are nicely crisp from the coating and baking them on a rack helps to really keep them as crisp as possible. The dipping sauce adds a creamy sweet and spicy flair as well.
