Cinco de Mayo!

We celebrated Cinco De Mayo (the 5th of May) by coloring mexican flags, checking out the location of Mexico and France on the globe and making Mexican Nacho Fiesta popcorn. The popcorn was a hit! Here is the recipe in case you're hungry:

Ingredients:
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp. Mexican chili powder
1tbsp. Cumin
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
8 cups plain popped popcorn

Cooking Instructions
In a small bowl, stir together the Parmesan cheese, chilli powder, salt, garlic powder and cayenne (if using). Set aside.
Prepare the popcorn either in a pot on the stove top or in a hot air popper. As soon as the popcorn is done, dump it into a large bowl and sprinkle on the seasoning mixture, tossing to coat everything evenly.
Serve immediately.
