If you’re looking for major brownie points from your tailgating crew, or if you just want to win over the hearts of every carnivorous, beer-chugging dude on campus (and who wouldn’t???) try these wings on for size!

Nothing brings a crowd together like a hearty plate of buffalo wings, especially a crowd of rowdy football fans looking to nosh on something hot and tangy. This all-time bar food favorite is easy to make, and fun to share, especially when double dipping comes into play. This recipe allows you to make your treats as spicy as you like, so either curb the fire breath or BRING ON THE HEAT!

Note: This recipe calls for 24 wings. Adjust as necessary Read More »

Football season is getting underway, which can mean one of two things: you a) love football and will be glued to the T.V., butt planted on the couch, every Sunday from now until the Super bowl or b) you will have to deal with your friends and/or boyfriends football obsession and watch them be glued to the T.V. for the next few months.

While intense beer drinking goes on, football goers (that I’ve been around at least) tend to not do so great on the whole football food situation. So, I’ve compiled a list of ways to fill your tummy while you (and your boy) get your sports fix.

Nachos and Guacamole. I’m not talking plain chips and salsa here, people. Do the nachos right with lettuce, tomatoes, melted cheese, beef, chili, jalapenos, salsa, sour cream and whatever else you like throwing on there. While you’re add it, grab some avocados, onions, cilantro, tomatoes and salsa and make some homemade Guacamole!

Skewers. Instead of plain old burgers and dogs, take some cubed beef, chicken and even shrimp or scallops, marinade them in a Tupperware for a few hours and chop up some chunky veggies (peppers, onions, mushrooms and tomatoes). Then, once your meats and fish are saturated in the dressing of your choice (BBQ, Teriyaki and Italian Salad Dressing are my top 3 favs), take skewer sticks and alternate a piece of meat/fish with your choice of veggies. Throw them on the BBQ (if you’re tailgating, you can pre-make them and store in a Tupperware and throw on once you get to the parking lot) and enjoy! Read More »
