Well it's Super Bowl time! There's nothing better in New England that Super Bowl time! We are serving Chicago Deep Dish Pizza and my famous NevaOva Wings! I would like to give you some entertainment ideas for your party and a recipe to try! How's THAT for FREE?

SERVING IDEAS: Serve almost everything you make on a 'skewer' or kabob stick! It makes for easy clean up! Some things that are great on a skewer are; chunks of cheese and grape/cherry tomatoes, fruit, bacon and scallops, chicken tenders to dip in hot sauce instead of wings and the list can go on and on.

SUPER BOWL RECIPES:

Artichoke and Spinach Dip

2 13oz. Cans artichoke hearts (drained and smashed)
1/2 of a 10-oz. package of frozen chopped spinach, thawed
1-1/2 cups Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
salt & pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Drain spinach well and mix in a bowl with all the rest of the ingredients. Bake in a greased casserole (you can also use non-stick spray here but who cares about calories on Super Bowl Sunday?:) for 30-40 minutes. Serve with crackers or pita chips or even with tostito/corn chips.

White Bean Chicken Chili

1 pound dried navy beans
1 pound chicken breast, skinned and boned, chopped in chunks
6 cups chicken stock
1/2 stick butter
1-2 tablespoons garlic
3/4 cup onion, diced
1-1/2 green chilies (fresh), chopped (you could substitute jalapenos here)
1-1/2 tablespoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons black pepper
1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped

Wash beans, cover with water by 2-3 inches and soak for 2 hours. Drain beans and place in a large pot and add chicken stock. Boil. In another saucepan, heat butter and add garlic, onion and chilies and saute for 5 minutes. Add to pot of beans. Add the rest of the ingredients, lower heat to medium and cook for about 1-1/2 hours. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Add shredded cheese or sour cream and scallions for garnish.


HALF TIME:

Give everyone a sheet of blank paper and have them write down the best 3 Super Bowl commercials! Anyone having the same ones as the host gets to go home with a gift! Gift Ideas; cozy throws, coffee mugs, a bag of movie treats (fill a small gift bag with candy bars, microwave popcorn and a DVD you no longer want).

Most of all HAVE FUN! See you next time with some OSCAR PARTY ideas and recipes!
