Jello popcorn quickly became a family movie night favorite, after we made Jello Popcorn Balls a couple of years ago for Halloween. The candied flavored popcorn is simply amazing.

For this St. Patrick’s Day popcorn, I used a lime flavored Jello recipe and added in some Lucky Charms Marshmallows. I picked out and added about 1 1/2 cups of the marshmallows to the popcorn. I was easily able to get that from one box of Lucky Charms cereal.
