It's no secret that I love football! And even though "my team" (The Minnesota Vikings) are not a part of it, I am really looking forward to watching the Super Bowl next Sunday.
Mark and I love to have family and friends over to watch the game with us and of course, food is always a big part of the day. I generally do buffet style, because I would rather spend my day enjoying our company and the game than in the kitchen cooking and preparing. I usually make everything the day before and put everything out just before our guests arrive. Plus, buffets allow others to bring their favorite dishes to share, if they choose. What's also fun is to have each guest bring their favorite dish along with the recipe on index cards to share with everyone. It's a fun and easy way to add to your cookbook repitoire.
In honor of football friendly buffets, I will share three quick and easy recipes with you today (one dessert, one appetizer and one hot dish that can easily be kept warm on a steam table or in a crock pot). Perhaps you would like to try one or all three next Sunday to enjoy during the Super Bowl.
Which team will you be rooting for? College? Pro? Doesn't matter; it's all fun!!
Counting our blessings,
Mary Beth Roe
