So, after much deliberating and attempted plan making, Jeffrey and I have decided to stay in for the Big Game this year. Believe me when I say, we pretty much considered every possible scenario including my travelling to South Florida for the game (for work of course!). I am quite pleased with our decision actually. I made the impromptu decision today that I would do nothing but cook next weekend and this seems to play right into that plan perfectly. We will extend invitations to anyone willing to travel to our little house full of food and football, and I will be content.
I have felt a little aimless on the cooking and entertaining front the past week or so. I'm not usually without a Fest to plan, or a new recipe I'm dying to try. I'm fairly sure this is due to a yearly bout with my "Winter Should Only Last 1 Month" theory. I have just been feeling pretty unmotivated but this decision to host a little Super Bowl Fest has perked me right up!
So far I've decided to make these cute little mini nachos that use the Scoops tortilla chips from Tostitos. I found the idea here (http://www.yumsugar.com/Your-Regular-Nachos-Nacho-Bites-1557156) and I'm pretty pumped about that. I'm not really sure why I haven't used these perfect little vessels in this capacity before, but I'm fairly sure I will be doing much more of this now!
As far as I know we have 2 confirmed guests and one of their favorite dishes in my repertoire are my Meatballs, so I'll probably do a Mini Meatball Sub station too. I'm realizing now that maybe I should start measuring ingredients so I can actually post recipes! I hardly ever measure anything, hence why I leave the baking to others :)
Seeing as this will be a mini gathering at best, I don't plan to decorate or any of that good stuff, but I do plan to make up for it with FOOD! I'm sure this won't be the last post about the Super Bowl Fest but I'm off to find more recipes for next weekends Cook-In!
