Super Bowl Menu

I am not a big football fan at all, but I do LOVE any time that includes good company and good food!
So per my husbands request I made some yummy dishes. They aren't super healthy but they are very good. I tried really very hard not to cheat to bad! ;)

So here is what was on the Menu...


Party Chicken Wings
Rotal Cheese Dip
Cream Cheese Mexican Salsa Dip

Party Chicken Wings
Ingredients:
I used Two large bags of the frozen wings from my local grocery store
1 1/2 Cups of Soy Sauce
1/2 Cup Water
2 tablespoons Spicy Dijon Mustard
2 teaspoons Garlic Powder

Directions:
1. I used all of the ingredients to one bag of chicken wings.
2. Place the ingredients in a large bowl. Set aside 1/2 cup of Marinade and refrigerate for basting. Pour Marinade mixture over the wings and turn to coat.
3. Cover the bowl to where it is completely covered and refrigerate over night.
4. Drain and discard marinade.
5. Place the wings in a shallow baking pan.
6. Bake, uncovered, at 375 degrees F for 1 hour.
7. Brush several times with Soy Sauce Mixture during the last 40 minutes of baking.
8. With about 10 minutes left of cooking time drain the wings and allow them to get a little crispy.
9. Enjoy and Share! These are amazing wings that are just the right mix of juicy and crispy!!!
10. Refrigerate any leftovers.

Ready to take to the SuperBowl Party!

These were great, but they are super rich. Next time I would cut them into smaller pieces. I would also suggest that unless you LOVE mint use a smaller amount.

I was quite pleased with how everything turned out and everyone seemed to love it all! These are all recipes I would recommend and make again!

This is how Clayton enjoy's the SuperBowl =)

Until Next Time,
