Super Bowl Easy Appetizers

Super Bowl is Sunday February 7th. Below are some easy,yummy apps to make any party a hit. After all eating and watching football do go hand and hand.

*Mexican Dip:

-1 can of refried beans
-1 block of cream cheese
-1 package of  shredded Cheddar cheese or Mexican cheese 

Get a Pyrex. Spread bottom with cream cheese. Spread next layer with refried beans. Top with shredded cheese. Put in microwave for two minutes. Add additional time until cheese is completely melted. Serve with Nacho chips or your favorite chip. 

*Apricot Kabosi:

1package of turkey kabosi
2 tablespoons of apricot preserves
2 tablespoons of deli mustard

Bake kabosi until golden. Now I like to Slice it thin before baking. I feel it gets really crunchy.  In a bowl mix apricot and deli mustard. Once kabosi is cooked pour mixture on top and bake for another 15 mins. So yummy and easy. 

*Pigs in a Blanket:

1 package of hot dogs
1 package of store brand crescent rolls

Every birthday and holiday I make shapes   Of this app with my kids. Ex: for their birthdays we make what number they turned. For Christmas we make a
Candy cane or Christmas tree etc... The trick here is to use store brand crescent rolls. The reason is it's more buttery. Not sure why but works and tastes better. I also like using full size hot dogs and cutting them in half to roll. 

*Goat Cheese Spread

1 package of pesto
1 jar of roasted peppers 
1 stick of cream cheese
1 block of goat cheese
1 bag of sliced mini bagels 


These app costs about $20 to make but it's really good and you can actually make two of these with the ingredients. First get a piece of plastic wrap and coat the inside of any tubberwear. This will mold the shape of how this spread will look. Mix in a seperate bowl cream cheese with goat cheese. Cut roasted peppers into bite size. I always add a little drizzle of extra virgin olive oil to the store bought pesto. 

Now start your layering. Start with cream cheese and goat cheese mix. Then add pesto. Then cream cheese and goat cheese mix. Then peppers. Then end with goal cheese and cream cheese spread. Cover and refrigerate over night. 

Open tubberwear and flip onto serving dish. Peel off plastic wrap. Serve with toasted mini bagel slices. Awesome!
