It goes to show that even the underdog can succeed. When the going gets tough, jump into the rule book of the saints- GO FOR AN ONSIDE KICK. That's how I feel sometimes, like I need something to keep it interesting and that is just what the Saints did last night. They pulled out all of the stops- we can all learn something from them..
On a different and more tasty note, I wanted to talk a little bit about the Superbowl Menu I made for me and my family last night. It was simple and tasty. 1/2 gluten free and 1/2 regular.
I started off with appetizers:
1. Shrimp and GF cocktail sauce
- Start off with a precooked and divined shrimp. I prefer the JUMBO but the small ones were on sale at Walmart. Keep it real and go for the deal, a shrimp is a shrimp.
2. Chili and Cheese Dipping sauce (This one is not that great calorie wise, but sometimes you have to splurge. It was the BIG GAME and it's a Moorhosue staple love you dad)
- Start with a large, microwave safe bowl.
- Add two cans of naturally Gluten Free Hormel Chili
- (This is the bad part) Add 1/2 of a block of Velveeta Cheese! :) Cut in strips for easy melting
- Microwave on high until slightly melted.
- Add one dollop of sour cream (seeing how this recipe is already loaded why not sure whole sour cream) :)
- Mix and stir until incorporated and microwave until all incorporated
- Serve with GF Corn Tortilla chips (I like scoops)
The Entree:
Gluten Free Pizza with garlic hamburger, mushrooms and spanish onion!
- Start with Chebe Pizza Mix and follow directions on back. (I really like this mix because the mix itself has oreagno and basil in dough. NOTE: Don't be shy with the liquid, it is a DRY dough
- While the dough is in the oven, in skillet sweat a 1/2 of onion and 3 cloves of garlic in a little bit of extra virgin olive oil.
- Add 1/4 LB of gound beef (or turkey or chicken it's up to you.) Add Salt and Pepper
- When beef is browned, add mushrooms
- Take out pizza crust and poke the sides if the have risen-
- Spread red sauce (Whatever you have in your pantry)
- Add Cheese
- Add toppings and put back in oven.
- After 20 minutes you have a yummy, delicious GF PIZZA!
Yummm.. I am hungry again. Good thing there is leftovers.
Just an FYI for lunch today, I had a salad of the rainbow:
- Spinich
- Iceburg Lettuce
- red onion
- kiwi
- red pepper
- 1/2 of a grapefruit
- On top? A warmed cut up peice of my pizza on top of my salad for added protein. :)
Enjoy your day and remember, Be Creative! Go for the onside kick!
