Here’s another idea for a picnic, potluck, biergarten meetup or a quick dinner that will feed — well, I’m guessing this will easily feed 10 people as a snack, maybe 4-5 for dinner. I made a cheater version of this stomboli because I bought the pizza dough at Trader Joes, though it’s not actually difficult to make pizza dough. If you do cheat, this stromboli will be ready in under an hour. Can be eaten hot or at room temperature and can be made a day or two in advance, if needed. Easy-peasy!

One of my guilty pleasures is Guacamole. OK, it could be worse — avocado is good for you right? — but I could eat it by the bucket. On Toaste. On potatoes. As salad dressing. On a burger. Whole Foods makes some yummy stuff (which I buy and freeze — that works surprisingly well — but when I go make it myself, here is the recipe.
The Superbowl is on Sunday so I’m trying out a few recipes in the run up to the big game. A friend shared this idea to my FB page last weeka dn I took it as a little bit of a challenge. One thing of note when making these: under-season (or leave out completely) with salt in the egg filling… pepper, parika, all good. But the bacon is so salty that you might want to add very little to the mixture, lest you have a salt-lick on your hands!
Here are a few numbers for you:
1. Superbowl Sunday is the second biggest annual “food event” in the US, trailing only Thanksgiving.
2. The 5 most consumed foods, according to Forbes, are: pizza, nachos, chicken wings, chili and beer. I guess beer is a food.
3. According to the National Chicken Council’s annual report, during the Super Bowl 2017 weekend, Americans ate 1.33 billion chicken wings. That is a lot of wings.
So all of this said, I’m going to be making some Superbowl treats in the run up to the big game. I am not a big NFL fan (give me ice hockey any day), but it’s a good excuse to make food. So I am starting with these yummy. Oven-baked Honey Garlic Chicken Wings … Easy to make, no greasy messy, very crispy, very flavorful.
