Mac 'n' Cheese Mix-Ins: Super Bowl Recipe Week: Mini Corn Dog Muffins. The original Mini Corn Dog Muffins! A fun and unique snack recipe for any special or ordinary occasion! Are you ready for some footballllll food?! :) Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’re probably aware that the Super Bowl is this weekend. Although a couple of days ago I did make the mistake of asking Ben what day of the week it was being played on. Smacks forehead. Hearty, one-sided chuckles ensued. Always up for a good theme week, I thought I’d share a few nibbles and bites over the next couple of days that are not only great for the big game this weekend, but would also be a hit at any party or get-together during the year.
I’m kicking things off (pun intended) with a sweet & savory bite that’s sure to score big points (…) with any crowd – Mini Corn Dog Muffins. These poppable, sweet and crispy cornbread bites with salty, all-beef hot dogs taste exactly like a state fair corn dog in a teeny-tiny package! Start the Mini Corn Dog Muffins by making the cornbread batter. And bake. Bacon Double Cheese Burger Dip. The Super Bowl is quickly approaching and that means that it is time to start dusting off some recipes for snacking! I am a big fan of hot melted cheese dips and I had an idea for a new one, a bacon double cheese burger dip that has all of the flavours of a bacon double cheese burger. Beef is the main part of a burger so I started out there and I added some ingredients that I commonly add to burgers including onions, garlic and worcestershire sauce.
Next up was the bacon and then the cheese and I included both cheddar for the flavour and mozzarella for the stringy melted goodness. I went with the standard hot melted cheese dip ingredients including the cream cheese, mayonnaise and sour cream to form the base of the dip. If you cannot live without lettuce and tomatoes in your burgers then topping the hot bacon double cheese burger dip with freshly diced juicy tomatoes and sliced crisp lettuce is the way to go and I highly recommend that you try it!
Bacon Double Cheese Burger Dip. Steak fingers with jalapeno cream gravy. “You’re not a fan of ‘Friday Night Lights? I can’t believe it!’” Said a Texan friend to me, shaking her head. Then there was my native New Yorker friend who said, “‘Friday Night Lights’ has made me fall in love with Texas. Tell me again why you don’t watch it?” Finally, my dad threw his hat into the discussion. It soon became clear to me that by not watching “Friday Night Lights,” I’d been missing out on something important. Now, I’m only halfway into the first season but this show set in the fictional town of Dillon, Texas has the power of making me laugh, cheer and cry—sometimes all at the same time.
Take the Alamo Freeze—the ice cream and hamburger place on the show that is a fictional stand-in for a Dairy Queen. Now, when you go to a Dairy Queen you may order an ice-cream cone dipped in crackling, crisp chocolate, a thick Blizzard milkshake chock full of goodies or a cheeseburger, both juicy and fat.

Alright you guys, seriously, this orange chicken tastes exactly like the best orange chicken you’ve ever had at any restaurant.
I was very, very, very skeptical at first because I’ve never fried meat before and I was afraid it would turn out terribly. Kramer was adamant about having me make orange chicken that would remind me him Chinese take-out, though, and I couldn’t let him down! It was perfectly crispy and crunchy and the sauce was right on point; sweet and tangy and with a little bit of heat. I honestly can’t emphasize how good this orange chicken is. You won’t be able to stop eating it, and it heats up great in the microwave as leftovers the next day. This orange chicken is a revelation. Your ingredients.

I have a great, easy and delicious new recipe to share with you!
One of my favorite things to do in my limited free time is to search food blogs and food websites. I kept seeing recipes similar to the one I'm going to share but I didn't like half of the ingredients, and the ones I did like, Chris didn't. So here's my version of Chicken Roll Ups! First, I boiled 2 chicken breasts. I just pulled them straight out of the freezer and threw them in warm water, and let it boil for about 40 minutes. Meanwhile, I let a block of cream cheese thaw out. I mixed the cream cheese with 1 1/2 cups of cheddar and 1 cup of Monterey jack and some salt and pepper. Once the chicken was cooked, Chris shredded it for me with his hands of steel, and we mixed it into the cheese mixture. Then I put the mixture on big, buttery, flakey crescent rolls. And rolled them up. Finally, bake them at 350 for 20-25 minutes!
Combine chicken, cheeses, salt and pepper. Be sure to check out my other great chicken recipes too!
