Football season is getting pretty exciting with the playoffs in full swing and the Superbowl right around the corner!
If you are gearing up for some celebrations bringing together friends to watch the game, I have a few tasty appetizer ideas for you.
In our house having a casual appetizer spread for dinner on football Sundays is a popular option! Thanks to Old El Paso and MyBlogSpark we had a chance to make some new recipes featuring Old El Paso chiles*.
Check out our super cool football table decor*…makes it pretty festive, now doesn’t it?
We love chips and dip so my guys chose this great Green Chile Dip to go with their tortilla chips. Super easy to make, with just the right amount of spice for everyone to enjoy. Old El Paso Green chiles add a lot of flavor with out adding too much spice.
I tried to hurry up a grab a plate before everyone else, but that darn photographer caught me…
Next up we made some Chile, Cheese and Bacon Quesadillas. We used our George Forman grill to cook up the bacon, and then heated up the quesadillas on there as well. I really liked the combination of the bacon with the chiles. Now take these and dip into that Green Chile dip…oh my is that good!
There are a few other recipes from the Betty Crocker site that feature Old El Paso chiles that I want to try next. Most have a prep time of less than 30 minutes each. A few that look interesting are:
Black Bean Dip
Green Chile Cornbread
Taco Nachos
Skillet Nacho Chili
Slow Cooker Salsa Chili
Seven Layer Bean Dip
Right now is the perfect time to taste test some new recipes before you gear up for the big game.
The chiles come in 4.5 and 7 oz. cans, are fat free and are less than 10 calories per serving.
A tasty way to spice up your dishes.
Old El Paso is generously offering up another “Tackle the Taste” gift pack for one of my readers!
This includes two free cans of Old El Paso green chiles, a ceramic football shaped serving platter, two sets of football themed plates, cocktail napkins, and football themed table runner!
You will get one entry into this giveaway if you leave a comment and let me know what you like to serve for appetizers on game days.
To get a second entry just link back to this post from your own blog and leave me a comment with the link to your post!
Deadline to enter is Wednesday January 20th, 12 midnight Eastern Time.
*Old El Paso and MyBlogSpark provided me with the chiles to make these recipes, along with a “Tackle the Taste” football themed pack for our table decor.
