SUPERBOWL Party?
Re: SUPERBOWL Party?
Not doing a Super Bowl Party but had some ideas:
Frozen Grapes
Popcorn
Fruit & Veggie Tray
Corn-thins w/Favorite Toppings (if hummus, don't forget to check ingredient list )
Pumpkin & Black Bean Chili served like Frito Pie w/Fix-ins...salsa, corn-thins, jalapenos, ff/lf cheese, ff/lf sour cream)
Smoothies/LDL Ice Cream
Hope y'all have a great time!
Blessings,
Julie

Re: SUPERBOWL Party?
Yesterday my boys were watching the Bears /Packers game and I was thinking, as I served a late lunch (Burgers with lean meat, broccoli and corn), that they would normally get their "favorites" of mozz sticks, pizza puffs and super pretzels. Thank God for LDL. I look forward to seeing ideas for the Super Bowl.

Knighte- The amazing thing is that, after a while, you and your family will actually prefer and crave the "good stuff" and not the processed "Frankenfoods." Who wants to eat garbage when the good stuff is so delicious, less expensive, healthier, and causes our weight to normalize?!!
I look forward to some great party food ideas on this thread. Pam

Don't forget the roasted Garbanzos instead of peanuts!

Re: SUPERBOWL Party?
And of course Popcorn *love*....Always Popcorn! :thumbsup:
This time we could try flavouring it with Cinnamon, ACV, stevia or ?
Have a great day!

Re: SUPERBOWL Party?
We usually have finger foods liked Dijon deviled eggs (my son loves those), crab stuffed mushrooms (made without breads crumbs) and seven layered dip using fat free cheese and sour cream (served with corn thins).
But this year I'm also going to try two new recipes: a crustless pizza quiche and a crustless taco quiche. Hopefully, they'll take the place of the pizza and tacos that the guys really love during the game.

Re: SUPERBOWL Party?
Seven Layered Dip
1 can (16 oz.) refried beans
1 Tbsp. taco seasoning mix
1 cup fat free or low fat sour cream
1 cup Thick 'N Chunky Salsa (I make my own)
1 cup shredded lettuce
1 cup fat free or low fat Mexican or other finely shredded cheese
4 green onions, sliced
2 Tbsp. sliced black olives
Mix beans and seasoning mix; spread onto bottom of pie plate. Top with layers of all remaining ingredients. Refrigerate several hours or until chilled.
Crustless Taco Quiche
Preheat oven to 350.
1 yellow onion, diced
1 package ground turkey
1 package Taco Seasoning
5 eggs
1 small can green chiles diced
1/2 cup fat free or low fat sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
Saute yellow onion, brown ground turkey in same pan. Add Taco seasoning packet and follow directions. In bowl, mix 5 eggs and small can green chiles. In casserole/baking dish spread out onion and seasoned turkey mixture. Pour over egg mixture and sprinkle cheese on top. Bake in 350 oven for 30-35 minutes (until golden brown on top, and toothpick inserted comes out clean). Let rest for about 5 to 10 minutes. This makes 6 big servings. Can be served topped with shredded lettuce, salsa, chopped onion, etc.
Crustless Pizza Quiche
4 eggs
2 egg whites
3 ounces fat free cream cheese, whipped
1/3 cup skim milk
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
2 T fat free or low fat Parmesan, grated
4 oz pizza sauce
3 oz cooked ground turkey
4 oz fat free or low fat mozzarella cheese, shredded
2 T black olives, chopped
Beat together cream cheese and eggs till smooth. Add milk, spices, Parmesan and pizza sauce. Spray a 9-inch or larger glass baking dish with cooking spray. Put the turkey and olives in pan, then pour egg mixture over. Evenly sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until eggs are set.
*The quiche recipes were given to me by a friend who eats a lot of turkey and I haven't tried them, yet. I plan to experiment by adding extra toppings (onions, mushrooms and peppers) to the pizza quiche in small amounts. I might also try using 1 cup of low fat cottage cheese instead of the cream cheese and milk. Also, use 5 to 6 eggs depending on their size instead of the egg whites.

Re: SUPERBOWL Party?
Thanks, CQ. I may not wait until Feb. 6 to make one of these- sounds delicious!!! I plan to have a party, so I'll fix plenty of LDL as well as non LDL. The difference since LDL, I can splurge without gaining a pound. I love the LDL recipes and woe. Thanks again. JF

Re: SUPERBOWL Party?
Your Welcome!
I may even try them in muffin pans (mini quiche) before the game to see how they turn out so that I pretty much have nothing but finger foods to serve that day. It's so much easier that way.

Re: SUPERBOWL Party?
Because my husband and I have our big LDL meal at 2:00, I'll be serving popcorn, LDL dips with corn thins, and smoothies for the game.
P.S. I was born and raised in Wisconsin -- lived there for 55 years before moving to New Hampshire 14 years ago. Because the Patriots blew their chance to go to the Super Bowl I get to cheer for my home state team -- GO PACKERS!

Right back at you Roger, you little devil you. In New Hampshire we HATE the Yankees. Love too to you, Neets, and mom.
P.S. CQ's link to the chili sauce won't work because the word c o c k was replaced with our I_am_a_BAD_Spammer. thingamabob. If you delete these words and add c o c k (no spaces) before "tail" it will work.

Re: SUPERBOWL Party?
Even though I was born in MN.......we moved to WI when I was 5---so Packers it is. My husband was born in Green Bay...........so I think you all get who the home team is at this house and who we will cheer for on Super Bowl Sunday! Our son-in-law is a Steelers fan------- we have all the bases covered. Our children never lived in WI---but they still are Packer fans........so as much as you hate the Packers RT------that's about how GB fans feel about the Vikings! We have season tickets for the Packers too.
So all.....enjoy the game........and GO PACKERS!!!!
