The Lady Likes Her Football

Many people have told me over the years that I am a prissy girl until it comes to football, and then I become one of the "dudes." My father raised me to not only like football, but to understand the game. I think many Southern women were raised the same way.  Although I enjoy college football much more than professional, I still appreciate the Super Bowl and all the food that goes with it. So, I am sharing my favorite game day recipes. They are not the healthiest, but they are best served with beer and football. 

Kickoff Mary

Game Day Frito Pies

1 lb Ground Beef or Turkey
1 can Rotel
1 can Ranch Style Beans
1 can Cream of Mushroom Soup
1 lb Velvetta

Cook meat in skillet until brown. Drain and set aside. In a crockpot on medium/high heat combine cheese, Rotel (drained), beans and soup. Allow the mixture to melt and stir occasionally. Once melted turn crockpot to the warm setting and stir in the cooked meat. Serve over Fritos and enjoy! This is great over tortilla chips too.


Ham and Swiss Sliders


Classic American Sliders



Another great way to serve them!

Crockpot BBQ Beer Chicken

Mini Corn Dog Muffins

Cream Cheese Sausage Balls

Cheddar Bacon Dip
A friend told me about this dip the other day.  Can't wait to try it!!  They call it "Crack" Dip... guessing it's addicting!!
