Stuffed jalapeño, meatloaf slider, 9 layer dip, potato skin, baked fried pie, chocolate strawberries
We Americans do love our football. I’m more about the commercials and food than the game, especially when it’s not a very exciting game like the XLVIII Super Bowl game. What I thought was a party for two happily became a party for three when big girl grand came by on her way home from work. Here are some of the recipes for the appetizer/finger food Sunday night we shared.Meatloaf Sliders recipe click here
