Our Super Bowl Feast! |
When I think of the Super Bowl, I think of snacks. No one wants to sit down to a full meal when they're busy rooting for their team - or watching the way too expensive commercials. (My favorite this year was for Volkswagon... the one with the dog that had to lose some weight!) So, I decided to make one of my all time favorite snack foods - my dad's chili dip!
Let me tell you, the chili was a hit. Everyone loved it, and came back for seconds and thirds! It's really nothing too special, just your basic chili - only chunked up a bit. Instead of throwing in diced tomatoes and onions and peppers, the recipe called for 2 cups of chunky salsa, and it uses black beans instead of chili beans. But other than that, it's just plain ol' chili! Throw everything into the Crock Pot for a couple hours and BAM - best chili ever. I served it with some plain tortilla chips, but I think it would also go really great with Ritz style crackers. Some of our friends brought over some other things to munch on, and we ended up with a game-day feast fit for any football fan! We had a meat/cheese tray with crackers, cheese flavored little smokies, the chili dip, and some cookies and milk for dessert! It was a great night, and everyone was full at the end of the night!
