Well, now that I have your attention (or not), I can truthfully say that I’m not much of a Super Bowl fan…or fanatic…but I do enjoy the ads:) And…the food, of course!For this week’s Tailgating Party, I’m revisiting some of my favorite party foods that I’ve come to really enjoy and suggesting a new one that I came across recently that is sure to become a family favorite.
This Bacon Cheese Dip at Crock Pot Easy Recipes is really rich and a calorie splurge, but it is oh, so good:) I mean, what’s not to love about a full pound of bacon!
This Creamy Artichoke Parmesan Dip found at Crock Pot Easy Recipes is beeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyond decadent! Love it. Could eat it by the spoonfuls! BIG spoonfuls.
Mary at One Perfect Bite recently reminded me of how much I love nachos. She is such a remarkable lady and cook. I just know you will spend hours checking out her blog. You can do that while munching on her Killer Nachos.
Once in a while you come across a recipe that you just have to try just because it seems really, well…weird. Aruna’s Fried Deviled Eggs was just that for me. I mean, we fry EVERYTHING in the South, but I can truthfully say that I’ve never, never, ever eaten a fried deviled egg! The recipe originally came from Down Home With the Neelys. It was good….strange but good.
Hubby will be enjoying a couple of these next Sunday while I’m chomping down on a celery stick or two. Or, I might just give this Loaded Baked Potato Dip a try. (In fact, I KNOW I will do just that.) I really like the idea of using the waffle fries as the replacement for chips.
