Game day just got better with our new favorite snack recipe--buffalo wings popcorn!
My husband and I enjoy spending time together and going grocery shopping for our traditional game day staples (e.g. fries, cheese, beer, vegetables and ranch, chicken wings, etc). A few weeks ago, while we were walking around the deli at Walmart, the smell of buffalo wings was so strong and it smelled so tasty I just had to have some buffalo chicken wings.
When I went up to the counter to order some wings, Adam grabbed me by the shoulder and stopped me when he said, "wait, I have an idea!"
He bent down and began digging through our grocery cart until he finally held up a single box of popcorn. That was when he said it would be tasty to make buffalo wing flavored popcorn. Laughing at first at how silly it sounded, imaging chunks of chicken wings inside a bowl of popcorn I told him it sounded like a good idea but that it wouldn't taste right. After a few minutes of Adam explaining his idea and what ingredients he'd use, that's when the idea of my husband's eureka moment finally started to settle in. We hurried around the store finding everything we needed, and then went straight to the checkout and headed home. Game day arrived just a few days later, and lo and behold, Adam's idea became our new favorite game day snack!

ReplyDeleteWHAT? I never would have put those two together but now I want to try. Fun fact: I'm from Buffalo and no one from there calls them Buffalo wings. If you do no one will know what you are talking about. We just call them chicken wings. Seriously though, this sounds amazing.
