If you are entertaining guest this football season and are not sure what to serve them here are a few great ideas:
simply mix up some ground beef or chicken, setting out some taco shells or tortilla chips, as well as taco toppings will allow you to prepare before the game and enjoy the company as well. An assortment of hard shells, soft shells, and tortillas needs to be ready to lay out. Simply wrap in foil, stack inside kitchen towel An assortment of sweet, savory, and spicy ingredients will be needed to please all party guest. Sweet corn, strawberries, and pineapple for the sweet tooth as well as sweet, hot, and hotter toppings as well. For those that love it extra hot set out some chili powder, jalapenos and hot sauce.
Before the game and party for the game prepare by chopping onions, tomatoes, peppers and other veggies that you desire. These can be stored in a ziptop bag or bowl in the fridge. Spices ranging from salt to red pepper flakes could be added as well.
Shreds of cheddar, Colby and Monterrey jack should be ready for that easy cheese blend. Crumbles of your favorite cheese could be placed on table and served as well. Tacos call for lots of cheese so be ready.
Leaving a few bowls and spoons near the chopped ingredients and spices will allow party goers to stir up their own spicy salsas. Sit out some store bought salsas and hot sauces as well
