Something with guacamole and hummus. That's what I plan on munching on.

Sabra makes a variety of flavored hummus out there which is darn good snack dip. If you want healthy snacks, raw veggies with that is always tasty - offsets the blandness of the vegetables.
Almonds are good, too. Wasabi peas are amazingly addictive and not that bad for you either.

Love Sabra. We get the single serving packages at Costco. I carry them on my trips. Sometimes I have wheat thins to dip in them and sometimes I just mix raisins in. That usually prompts a look from the other seat, but it's really good! Salty and sweet.

Never thought about doing that with raisins. That's a good idea. I bet dates would be good, too. I like mopping hummus up with tortillas, too, but since I'm trying to cut out the bread these days, celery, carrots and fruit are excellent transports for hummus. Thanks for the idea.

I don't care much about the game, or the sport really, but I love the food. It's one of the mandatory cheat days from any diet you might be on during the year.
Wings hot or hot and honey with as much blue cheese as the wing can hold.
Taco dip heavy on refried beans, sour cream and avocado slices.
Hoagie dip(or whatever the rest of you want to call it, sub dip just doesnt sound as good) any meat and cheese you want with mayo. Dip with baguette

I used to believe that 'cause my wife makes a really good hummus. Then about 5 or 6 years ago we moved into the current neighborhood and this place is a short walk away - absolutely excellent hummus. And I've spent a fair amount of time in the Middle East over the years. Even my wife agrees and now all of our hummus comes from Sami's.

They are and they made my son the hit of his hockey teams (beside the fact that he was the super goalie)!
But you really need to watch them so they don't burn.
Very good. Kafta with tahini and cucumber sauces on a loaded wheat pita FTW.

Oreo coal:
Half stick of butter
5 cups of small marshmallows (6 come in a normal bag so just pour out 1 cup and use the rest)
2 tablespoons of vanilla extract
1 box of ground oreos
Melt butter and marshmallows, once melted pour in vanilla and fold in oreo mix (keep on low heat until ready to put into serving dish). Place in a pan and try for roughly .5in to 1 inch thick.
I also tried this with chips ahoy, and it came out well

Bacon wrapped jalapeño tater tots with cheese sauce:
Cheese Sauce
Directions
Cheese Sauce
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup grated Monterey Jack Cheese
- vegetable oil
- 1 pound sliced bacon, cut into 3-1/2" long pieces (you might have leftovers)
- 24 frozen tater tots, thawed
- 24 slices jalapeno, about three
Directions
- For the sauce, in a medium saucepan over medium heat melt the butter. Add the salt, pepper and flour, whisking over heat for one minute. Add the milk slowly while whisking constantly to remove any lumps. Continue to cook until bubbly, add cheese until melted. Serve warm.
- For the wraps, heat oil over medium-high heat to 375 degrees F. Roll one piece of bacon around each tater tot and slice of jalapeno. Secure tightly with a toothpick.
- Fry each tater tot, about four at a time, until bacon is crisp, about 2 minutes. Serve with warm cheese sauce for dipping

2 very easy dip crowd pleasers.
Fresh salsa dip: 2 cups fresh salsa ( the dryer baha Mexican fresh stuff, not the wet jar stuff) / 1 ripe avocado, cubed. Combine, enjoy.
Easy 3 layer dip: 1 package cream cheese, room temp. 1 jar store salsa. 1 package finely shredded Mexican blend cheese.
Layer cream cheese on bottom of glass oven pan (Pyrex, etc), later salsa over cream cheese, then shredded cheese on top, bake at 325 until melted. Scoop chips work best. You can avocado slices or jalapeños to taste.
Both super easy and sub 10 minute prep time.
