I have been waiting for weeks for tomorrow to arrive–Super Bowl Sunday. Not because I am a huge football follower, but because the other half is and his team has always been the Indianapolis Colts. Each week I would sit here wondering if they would continue to win thus further stalling our Sunday open house visits. Tomorrow is a game changer. Next Sunday we will be attending every open house from Brooklyn to the Bronx!
I have plenty of football viewing snack recipes on the site. Search hors d’oevres or snacks and you will find plenty to share tomorrow at your party. Today’s is a simple and very flavorful bean dip with just enough kick.
Ingredients:
1 16-oz. can black beans, drained and mashed
1 c. shredded Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese
1/3 c. mayo
1 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1/2 tsp. chopped garlic or 1/4 tsp.garlic powder
bag of tortilla chips
bag of pretzel rods
fresh veggies
Preheat oven to 375. In medium bowl, combine beans, 1/2 c. cheese, mayo, jalapeno, cumin and garlic. Put into casserole and top with remaining cheese. Bake uncovered 20 minutes or until heated. Serve with chips, pretzels and veggies.
I try to have most of the ingredients around the house in case I get unexpected company. Since I rarely have a spare jalapeno pepper, I change it up with other spices I have around. Changed the flavor slightly and makes for a great surprise. Go Colts!
