SUPER BOWL IS SUPER BIG THIS YEAR

This year it seems like the Super Bowl has become almost like a Holiday. I guess it is because we live in Washington state and there are a sea of Seahawk colors abounding everywhere you look. People are wearing the shirts, selling blankets, cups, hats, socks, every imaginable item, even cupcakes and donuts.  With that said I hope you enjoy your Super Bowl Sunday in the way you want to. For me I am heading down to a local pub called The Lantern and sit by the fire, have my food served to me and my friends while we watch the game, the half time entertainment and the much anticipated commercials.

Here are some chili recipes from ABE'S MARKET

Nobody wants to be stuck in the kitchen during the Big Game. Make the following recipes ahead and keep them warm until kickoff. The use of an all-natural slow cooker sauce made entirely of vegetables and seasonings speeds up prep time considerably. Using lean ground beef, turkey or all vegetables ensures a low-fat delicious meal! Take an extra 25% off Jesben Slow Cooker Sauces with code SNOWDAY until 2/1!
