Super BOWL this Sunday


And it's the Seattle Seahawks v. the Denver Broncos!

That's the first time in . . . forever that I could name both teams playing in the Super BOWL! But West Coast gaming is going to be at its best this weekend. And that means, West Coast munching is going to go maniacal.

So, to make the party special (and yes, I'm even going to a Super BOWL party--my first one ever.) No. I'm not a big fan of football but this should be fun...right? So, anyway, it's a potluck. And why is it that whenever I hear "super BOWL", all I'm thinking about is food and what I'm going to be packing to the party ;D

Hum...

And, I've been trying to figure out recipes...

I even checked out this link. And, Saturday I'll be taste testing a few different things.

But, I'm leaning toward my bacon date wraps ;D They might not be the prettiest at the party but I can guarantee they'll be a quick party-pickup ;D

How 'bout you...any plans for Super BOWL Sunday?

Bacon Wrapped Dates

This was the first time I've ever made these and they were oh-so yummy!

Here's how I made them.

First I split the dates in two:

Then I stuffed them with raw almonds and wrapped them in bacon.

It takes a little bit of effort to cut, stuff and wrap...

But they were so good and so easy to bake that I will definitely make them again. Plus, they would be a great appetizer to serve at a party because you could prepare them ahead of time and then simply bake them 15 minutes before your party . . . because it only takes 14 minutes for these to cook.

Set your oven at 350 and bake for 7 minutes, then flip them over and bake for another 7 minutes. They were so good because they were sweet and savory with a little crunch !
