This week with the Super Bowl coming up I decided to add a few of our family favorite snack foods. Whether you are hosting or attending a party, or just need a quick to throw together snack, any of the items will be easy to prepare and you may likely have the ingredients in your pantry.
#1 Lil Smokies, or as my family lovingly calls them, 'Heart Attacks on a Stick'
1 pkg Little Smokies, I buy the beef ones if available.
1 pound pkg of bacon
Tooth picks
Brown Sugar
9x13 pan
Aluminum Foil
Cut the bacon into thirds. Wrap each third slice of bacon around a smokie and pin together with a toothpick. Place in the 9x13 pan arranging the entire package into one layer. Sprinkle with a layer of brown sugar on top of the smokies. Cover pan with foil. Bake at 400 degrees for one hour. Serve immediately or keep warm in a crockpot.
#2 Layered Mexican Dip
Layer in a casserole or shallow dish the following items:
Cream Cheese, softened; Refried Beans, Salsa, Grated Cheddar Cheese, Shredded Lettuce and topped with small dollops of sour cream. Serve with tortilla chips. Can be made ahead if stored covered in the refrigerator.
#3 Toffee Apple Dip
1 pkg of cream cheese softened, 1/2 pkg of Heath Bar Bits, 1/3 C of brown sugar
Place all three ingredients into a quart sized freezer bag, seal and knead until ingredients are evenly mixed. Keep refrigerated. Before serving allow to sit out for a few minutes to softened slightly. Serve with apple slices. Also great on graham crackers.
These are a few of my 'go-to' recipes for parties and gatherings. I hope your family enjoys them as much as mine does. Hoping to see you again more regularly in blogland, sorry for the long break between posts.
