1 c. corn syrup
1 c. peanut butter
1 bag fritos (small fritos, not scoops)
bring sugar and corn syrup to boil. once it starts to boil remove from heat and add peanut butter.

magic salad


"puff the magic" salad
my kids named this because the yogurt starts out tart, then sweetens the whole thing! 
[And because of the obvious puff & their love of Puff the Magic Dragon ;-) ]

20 oz. can pineapple chunks [drained]
2 c. FUNmallows [fruit flavored marshmallows]
16 oz. plain nonfat greek yogurt
1/2 c. coconut flakes

mix pineapple, mallows, & yogurt together.
refrigerate for at least 30 minutes....the longer the better.
top with coconut before serving!

1 (sm)t. cinnamon

1/4 c. light karo syrup (or honey)
1 t. vanilla
1/2 t. baking soda

in microwaveable bow, mix brown sugar & cinnamon.
chop the butter in chunks and evenly place it over sugar mixture.
pour karo syrup/honey over all.
microwave for 30 sec. remove & stir.
microwave 2 minutes. remove & stir.
microwave 2 additional minutes.
remove & add vanilla & baking soda (this is the secret....mixture will foam & rise & get sticky!)
pour the gooey-ness over the popcorn and mix well to coat evenly.
spread on cookie sheet and bake at 250 degrees for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes.
remove sheet from oven and immediately transfer to wax paper to cool.
