GIVEAWAY – Kraft Game Day Recipes
By valmg on Jan 28, 2011 with Comments 72
Are you ready for some football???!!!
The big day approaches rapidly – the Superbowl. It’s a day for entertaining, and definitely a day for serving snacks. Ours are usually crunchy and salty, or hot and melty. Snacks and appetizers are foods that people are so creative with, I always enjoy seeing what people are coming up with. Here are two football party recipes from Kraft that are perfect for game day. The Chuckwagon Chili Mac is similar to something that I make and I may try this one for the big game. The 5-Layer Mexican Dip sounds great and I think my son will gobble it up, that boy loves nachos. Check them out, and be sure to stick around for a fun giveaway from Kraft.

I like oven fried pickles!
1 jar Kosher Dill Pickle spears
3/4 cup bread crumbs
1 tsp. oregano
½ tsp. paprika
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 egg
Preheat oven to 375. Mix whole wheat bread crumbs, oregano, and paprika in a shallow bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg.
Rinse pickle spears with water to take off some of the excess sodium. Dip in the egg mixture, than with the bread crumb mixture. Bake until golden brown.
Serve with low-fat honey mustard dip.
