You Win Some, You Lose Some

So yesterday was the NFC championship game, and living in Wisconsin, not watching that game with your "home" team in it would be a sin. Of course, such a game calls for a party, meaning good food, and honestly that's all I really care about. So J and I made our way to his dad and stepmom's house, who always makes sure there is plenty of food.

It was the typical Sunday football spread: chips, salsa, veggies and dip, hot ham and rolls, potatoes etc. Perhaps the best things in my eyes on the table were two things that were complete opposites. Chocolate covered mini creampuffs ( yes I'm sure they were bought, but they were oh so good!) and this dip that J's brother in law makes. It's so simple, yet I have yet to ever make it (probably because I have been putting of buying a crock pot, wierd I know). It's good with crackers, bread, tortilla chips, pretty much anything...

Cheesy Sausage Dip
2 lbs. of Bob Evans Zesty Sausage (any kind of sausage will work here, just make sure it's the spicy kind)
2 packages of cream cheese
2 -16oz. Rotel tomatoes with chilies

Brown the sausage in a skillet. Drain. Combine the browned sausage, cream cheese and tomatoes with their juice in a crockpot on low until melted.

Mmmm...


Seriously, really easy and really good. Well, the Packers didn't win the game, but I did with all the good food.
