Foodball: Smoky Hatch Chile Bacon Pimento Cheese

By sarah sprague On 01/05/2015 · Add Comment · In

Smoky Hatch Chile Bacon Pimento Cheese

Hatch chiles give this pimento cheese a completely different profile. Both are a smoky pepper, but Hatch chiles match so well with the bacon, I’m pretty annoyed I didn’t have the idea to switch up my pimento cheese until [...]

Shepherd’s Pie Potato Skins

So if two food items can be a trend, and I already posted a recipe for Poutine Potato Skins, then yes. Potato skins are something everyone loves for football watching. And as delicious as sour cream, cheese and bacon are in [...]

Toasted BLT Bread

A few weeks ago I was in the mood for the BLT Bites I’ve made a hundred times for parties and football Sundays. And while I love them, they can feel like a lot of work even though they are not much [...]

Jalapeños Stuffed With Chorizo And Corn Bread

But going the extra distance to make beautiful stuffed jalapeños filled with moist corn bread, melty cheese and spicy chorizo isn’t that difficult. Making a perfectly golden crust is even easier. Give the poppers a break and make [...]

Deep Dish Skillet Pizza

Deep Dish Skillet Pizza

This doesn’t have the word “Chicago” in the title for a reason, so don’t come at me with how this recipe isn’t like Pizzeria Uno Chicago-based friends. I typically use less cheese than a typical deep dish pie because they’re already [...]

Super Bowl Recipe Month: Throwback Week – Stuffed Baguette

By sarah sprague On 01/11/2013 · Add Comment · In

Stuffed Baguette

You can almost hear the old Steelers-Cowboys rivalry fire back up with these stuffed baguette slices. Meat, cream cheese (a popular ’70s theme) stuffed into bread was a must at luncheons and parties thirty years ago.

Now, you’ll notice I added sun dried [...]

By sarah sprague On 11/30/2012 · Add Comment · In

Chorizo Stuffed Sweet Potato Skins: Football Foodie Fall Heat

By sarah sprague On 11/09/2012 · Add Comment · In

Like most people, I’m a sucker for a good twice-baked potato or potato skins with bacon, chives and cheese, but sometimes they’re lacking the depth needed for a satisfying snack. Enter the sweet potato, the better-for-you version of a starchy vegetable. While [...]

Bacon Chile Cheese Spinach Scrambled Eggs on Avocado and English Muffin Breakfast Sandwiches: Football Foodie Brunch

By sarah sprague On 09/19/2012 · Add Comment · In

A good, hearty breakfast sandwich serves two purposes, it gives you a good base of carbs and protein to start your day of yelling and screaming and it also helps eliminate any hangover you might have from either Friday or Saturday night to make sure [...]

Chicken Tikka Masala Wraps: 28 Days of Super Bowl Recipes

By sarah sprague On 01/31/2012 · Add Comment · In

There are few things my husband likes more than chicken tikka masala, so when the first weekend without Steeler football came around this postseason, I knew I needed to make something a little special to cheer him up for watching a black and gold-less football [...]

Spicy Spinach Pancetta Balls: 28 Days of Super Bowl Recipes

By sarah sprague On 01/27/2012 · Add Comment · In

Spinach balls have been a cocktail party staple for decades, but I’m a firm believer that the old classic is begging to be spiced up with some hot pepper and some meaty pancetta.  I’ve never made these and not have them disappear within in minutes. [...]

Mini Twice Baked Potato Bites: 28 Days of Super Bowl Recipes

Between Sirius/XM, ESPN, Twitter and my friends’ Facebook updates, I’ve been reminded that today marks the 10th anniversary of the Tuck Rule game. Earlier today I was just thinking how great it would be to have the complete NFL/NBA/NHL/MLB archives available to rewatch [...]

By sarah sprague On 01/03/2012 · Add Comment · In

Christmas Eve and New Year’s Day are the last two big NFL brunch days here on the West Coast. Throw in a few random early bowl games on January 2 plus the extra relatives you’ve got hanging around the next couple of weeks and you’re [...]

Italian Pressed Sandwiches

By sarah sprague On 01/03/2012 · Add Comment · In

This is one of the easiest game time and pregame tailgate items around as well as being one of the tastiest. Creamy fresh mozzarella cheese, spicy meats, smokey peppers, brightness of pesto on chewy bread. As long as you give your sandwich at least six [...]

Favorite Burgers: Pineapple, cole slaw, teriyaki and blue cheese on English muffins

By sarah sprague On 01/03/2012 · Add Comment · In

Continuing my lackadaisical Football Foodie off-season, a quick post about one of my favorite “NEED MEAT NOW, IRON LEVELS FALLING” meals; pineapple, cole slaw, teriyaki and blue cheese on an English muffin burger. The sweetness of the pineapple and the teriyaki, the bite of the [...]

Brunch Bread Bowls with Egg, Ham and Cheese

By sarah sprague On 01/03/2012 · Add Comment · In

Long time Friday Football Foodie readers know that as a West Coaster, where football starts prompt at 9am on Saturdays and 10am on Sundays, I absolutely love the Football Brunch.  You get to miss the three to four hours of meaningless pregame analysis, you can [...]

Ham and Cheese Pretzel Bites

By sarah sprague On 12/31/2011 · Add Comment · In

Our football-loving friend and house guest Jeremy was on the phone with our non-football loving friend Damon when the Bengals intercepted Roethlisberger and returned the ball for a touchdown.   Second strike, since Damon has been known to jinx sporting events before.   Third strike?  [...]

Artichoke, Olives, and Capers Crostini

By sarah sprague On 12/31/2011 · Add Comment · In

It is incredibly important to have a sound base.  A solid running game (THAT CAN PICK UP TWO YARDS ON THIRD DOWN MISTER-BRUCE-THROW-TO-THE-END-ZONE-ARIANS), some money stashed away in savings just in case you quit your day job, and bread that has been properly toasted.

And naturally, what do you do? How do you hide the nagging voice in your head telling you Bruce Arians has no idea what he’s doing with an offense? Well, you can bang your head on the wall continuously (as my boyfriend does), or you [...]

Breakfast Strata

By sarah sprague On 12/31/2011 · Add Comment · In

Really, you can used whatever you want for the filling. Cooked sausage, bacon, just cheese and veggies (as long as they are not watery), you name it. You can also make this sweet strata by using cream cheese and raisins or other dried fruits. It [...]
