    Brush the dough strips lightly with Dijon mustard. Put the mini hot dogs on 1 end of the dough and roll up.<\/h3>\n

     <\/p>\n

    egg wash and sprinkle with poppy seeds or sesame seeds. Bake until golden brown, about 12 to 15 minutes. Serve warm with the dipping sauce.<\/h3>\n

      MACHO<\/strong><\/em> NACHOS<\/span><\/h3>\n

      This recipe was created by Paula Deen, and we think it is a perfect game food. \u00a0Mr. Spring really loves this one.<\/h3>\n

       <\/p>\n

        \n
      • \n

        1 can refried beans<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n

        1 large bag white corn tortilla chips<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n

        1 medium onion, chopped<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n

        1 cup shredded pepper jack<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n

        1 jalapeno, sliced crosswise, plus extra for garnish<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n

        1 can chili, or your favorite chili recipe<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n

        1 cup shredded Cheddar<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n

        1 cup sour cream<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n

        1 cup green onion, chopped<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n

        1 tomato, diced<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Directions<\/h2>\n
        \n

        Have all the prepped ingredients easily accessible to assemble nachos.<\/h3>\n

        Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.<\/h3>\n

        In a small saucepan over low heat, cook refried beans until they are loose enough to spoon onto nachos. On a large ovenproof platter, spread out a layer of tortilla chips and quickly put a teaspoon of hot refried beans on each chip. Working quickly, sprinkle with some onions, jack cheese, and jalapeno slices. Spoon on chili and top that with Cheddar. Repeat this layering process until ingredients are used up. Save some of the jalapeno slices for garnish. Place platter in the oven and bake until cheese has melted, about 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and place on a trivet or heatproof surface. Top nachos with sour cream, green onions, diced tomato and jalapeno slices and serve hot.<\/h3>\n

        My grandmother owned a country restaurant for a while, and chili dogs were one of the most popular items on her menu.\u00a0 You can make it in a slow cooker, which means it can be cooking while you are doing other things to prepare for the game.<\/h3>\n

         <\/p>\n

        GRANDMA’S HOT DOG SAUCE<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n

        \u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n

        3 pounds ground beef or ground turkey<\/h3>\n

        5 1\/4 cups ketchup<\/h3>\n

        1\/2 cup mustard<\/h3>\n

        9 medium onions<\/h3>\n

        1\/2 cup chili powder<\/h3>\n

        3\/4 cup apple cider vinegar<\/h3>\n

        3\/4 cup sugar (more if sauce is too tart)<\/h3>\n

        Brown meat and drain. \u00a0Chop onions. \u00a0Add both to a large pot along with the remaining ingredients, and simmer for 45 minutes. \u00a0Watch carefully and stir frequently so that it does not scorch.<\/h3>\n

        If you don\u2019t want to make such a huge quantity, you can divide the ingredients proportionally to make a smaller amount.<\/h3>\n

        Now for that alcoholic beverage we were talking about.\u00a0 This one is more of a girl drink, but it’s perfect for sipping while you wait for the commercials and the half-time show.\u00a0 Let the men have the beer, and you stick to this beauty.\u00a0 It has one step that requires a soft touch, but you can do it!<\/h3>\n
