   Make a Pot of Chili…serve corn chips , cheese, and sour cream, and chopped green onions, then every one can fix them a bowl how they like it.
   Make Pizza’s…have the dough made…and different toppings, and everyone make their pizza’s like they like them.
   Have Chicken wings with assorted dipping sauces.
   Have assorted dips and chips.
   Why not have aCheese Fondu….with meats, bread, and vegetables , and one chocolate fondu with fruits, and pound cake.
   Or…Put a Pork Loin or Pork Roast in the Oven to cook…and Bar BQ it…and have Pulled Pork Sandwiches on Buns..serve cole slaw…and baked beans…sound like a meal…not appetizers…but is easy to make and do… : )

   Just so long as you have the food groups represented, you’ll be good to go. For instance, the veggies (carrots, celery, zucchini, etc. and naturally their dip), meats (cocktail weiners, mini meatballs, chicken wings, etc.), and a fruit plate.

   Or, for a very simple dinner, you could prepare ahead of time the following:

   Ground beef with taco seasoning
   shredded lettuce
   diced tomatoes
   diced yellow onions
   diced green onions
   shredded cheese
   flat flour tortillas (heat between paper towels in the microwave on a plate)
   refried beans (zap in the microwave to reheat)
   sliced black olives
   Sour cream
   Guacamole or sliced avocado (if sliced avocado – do just before eating)

   Place them all in individual bowls on your table and let everyone put on their “Taco Salad” whatever they want. They can take their plate – filled – and camp out in front of the TV to watch the game.

   Enjoy!!

   Ok, Dinner out of Appetizers? Got it but it depends on what appetizers you have or had….hahaha, once the crowd has left! Everyone has some variation of chips and dip, right? May I suggest using the dip for a salad dressing if it’s lighter then crumble the chips onto your left over Chili for a crunchy baked topping? Heck, if you had any sort of cheese dip, throw that onto your Chili as well, what a treat? Did you have chicken wings? hamburgers, hot dogs………….you can always have a buffet night, let the kids and spouse pick and choose what they want right off the pan, once you have re-heated everything? I wish I knew what appetizers you had to give you a full dinner menu to serve your family, but this is what I have for the moment! Happy Sunday!

   That’s what we’re doing…
   Here’s what I have in mind:

   Cream Cheese Cracker Spread:
   Scallions, chopped black olives, cream cheese, cup grated cheese, dash garlic powder, dash onion powder, dash white pepper, dash salt. Blend together. shape into ball. serve with crackers. Optional: roll in chopped nuts.

   Chicken Wings

   We’re all about easy! I buy the best sauce I can find for the flavor I want (terriaki, BBQ, etc.), then put the wings and the sauce in the crock pot until done (about 4-6 hours). If they’re done sooner, I turn the crockpot to ‘warm’ and let them simmer. Yum!

   This is the best and easiest dip recipe, and people always rave! I tell them it’s really hard to make (lol):

   Cream Cheese Dip

   2 large blocks of cream cheese
   1 large jar Pace picante (medium)-use most of the jar

   Soften cream cheese and mix with hand mixer until smooth. Add picante and mix with hand mixer. Leave in frig for a few hours to blend flavors. Serve with tortilla chips.

   I know it seems too simple to be great, but it is!

   Crab Dip is easy and very good.

   1pkg Softened Cream Cheese
   2 Tbsp Minced Onions
   1/3 C. Bottled Chili Sauce
   1 Can of Crab meat
   Parsley Flakes to Garnish

   Mix onion with cream cheese and spread on serving plate. Top with chili sauce. Sprinkle rinsed drained crabmeat on sauce & garnish with parsley flakes. Serve with Ritz crackers.

   Takes about 5 minutes to put together .. and is always a hit!

   This is also great!

   Buffalo Chicken Dip
   2 (5 ounce) cans chicken, drained
   2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
   1 cup ranch dressing
   3/4 cup red hot sauce
   shredded cheddar cheese (you decide the amount)
   –Beat cream cheese, ranch dressing, and red hot sauce. Fold in shredded chicken. Spread mixture into pie plate sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Add cheddar to top and bake an additional 10-15 minutes. *Serve with fritos or tortilla chips*

   Here’s my no fail, always asked-for nacho dip. When it’s heated through, put it on warm or low, or unplug for a short time if it’s too hot. Everyone raves about this:

   1 1/2 pounds ground beef, browned
   1 can cream mushroom soup
   1/4 cup butter
   2 lb Velveeta, cubed
   2 cups Pace Chunky Salsa, (medium is our favorite, mild or hot if you like)
   3 Tbsp Chili Powder

   Put all into crock pot. Cook on low 1-1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally. Serve with tortilla chips. Yummy!

   This is the newest addition. The author says your guests will lick the bowl. With an endorsement like that, how can I pass up trying this one?

   I’m also thinking about little smokies wrapped in refrigerated biscuit mix and served with spicy mustard.

   Probably also veggies and dip.
