Stir the melted White Chocolate, then add the Green Food Coloring to the melted chocolate.
Stir well to blend, and if the color is not bright enough, add another drop, and stir, and continue to add 1 drop and stir until you get the desired color of green
Pour the Melted Green/White Chocolate over the popcorn, and stir with a large spoon to coat the popcorn in the melted chocolate.

When finished, place the Chocolate in a large serving dish, or several dishes if preferred, and generously sprinkle on the Red Grinch Hearts.
Serve, and Enjoy!

Notes

If you have not used the White Chocolate Almond Bark, you'll find it most likely on the baking isle, at your local grocery store or market. It's melting chocolate that is great to work with, as it melts quickly, and is wonderful for dipping, or coating whatever you're making that calls for a melting chocolate. It has nothing to do with Almonds, does not contain almonds. ALSO: After you've coated the popcorn in the White/Green melted Chocolate, if you're not serving it until later, you can pour the popcorn out onto parchment paper to allow the chocolate to set, or dry on the popcorn. If you're pouring it out onto parchment paper, go ahead and sprinkle on some of the Red Hearts, as it will stick to the Chocolate before it dries. When you transfer to serving bowl(s) you can sprinkle on a few more Red Grinch Hearts. If you're storing the popcorn, place it in an airtight container, in a cool dry place. Popcorn will keep for 3 days when stored properly.
