Super Bowl Brings Inspiration





In Vegas, it's all about the spread for the biggest game of the season. I was bored with the 10 avocados we bought on sale. (Hubby: "Why do we need 10 avocados?" Me: "Because they are less than .25 cents each." Everytime we have to have this conversation, everytime!)

So I got a few of my favorite food MVPs and came up with Bacon Avocado Creamy Horseradish dip.

It's one avocado, 1/2 cup of sour cream mixed with teaspoon of horseradish, along with a dash of cumin, cilantro or parsley for a little green, green onions for some crunch and mixed until that heavenly creamy green hue. Top with crumbled bacon (a hubby addition, of course!) and it can be a made a lowfat dip for game day!


We also bumped up the couch time with Super Bowl Bingo, since we're not big bettors in this Vegas casa. SBB is a mix of commercial info and game play moments. For instance, check off the horse box when the animal comes on the screen (just once!) and if the Broncos fumble. Had no idea I'd jinx the team! Thought we'd also use this idea the next time we have to watch a princess movie for the umpteenth time! It took about 10 minutes in total (finding the paper was the time sucker) and we can use it for Disney movies that tend to drag on for those over 12.
