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.
I’ve been feeling sick with a cold the last few days, so comfort food was on deck — with a bit of spice to clear the sinuses. This Roasted Tomato and Red Pepper Soup was the perfect thing. Extremely flavorful, hearty and I added a bit of extra red pepper flakes so definitely spicy. Served with baguette with lots of cheddar cheese. Perfect thing for an “under the weather” January day.
OK, it’s almost New Year’s Eve and someone invites you to a party. You need a quick and easy thing to bring along. Voila! This dip! Bacon. Cheese and more cheese. A little bit of salsa. And did I mention the bacon. Dip in crackers or tortilla chips. Serve Warm if you can, but also works at room temperature. Enjoy!
